No indicator for optimistic concurrency control on EntityType or EntitySet level

      [Proposed]

      Currently the only way for a server to indicate to its clients that entities of a given type use optimistic concurrency control, and that the client thus has to watch out for ETags in responses and provide appropriate If-Modified headers in requests is to use the ConcurrencyMode="Fixed" facet on simple properties of an entity type.

      If the server

      • does not wish to disclose which properties it uses for optimistic concurrency control, or
      • does not include the concurrency control properties in the entity type, or
      • includes the properties as part of a complex type
        it has no means to advertise the presence of optimistic concurrency control to the client.
