      Content-ID referencing in request bodies is allowed:

      PUT $2/SingleValuedNavigationProperty
      {
      "@odata.context": "http://host/service/$metadata#$ref",
      "@odata.id": "$1"
      }

      POST SomeEntitySet
      {
      ...,
      "SingleNavigationProperty@odata.bind":"$2",
      "MultiValuedNavigationProperty@odata.bind":["$1","$3","SomeEntitySet(42)"],
      ...
      }

      Services allowing $<content-id value> syntax in request bodies for inserting links SHOULD advertise this with the new term BatchContentIdReferencingInRequestBodiesSupported in the Capabilities vocabulary:

      <Term Name="BatchContentIdReferencingInRequestBodiesSupported" Type="Core.Tag" DefaultValue="true" AppliesTo="EntityContainer">
      <Annotation Term="Core.Description" String="Service supports Content-ID referencing in request bodies" />
      </Term>

      Object graphs that are not trees can require inserting links to entities that just have been created in the same change set. This can only be done with content-id references within request bodies.
