      1) Always use $ref to reference a named type (complex, entity, typedef, enum)
      2) We use odata paths to reference entity sets and singletons
      3) For functions and actions, use $ref

      1) Always use $ref to reference a named type (complex, entity, typedef, enum) 2) We use odata paths to reference entity sets and singletons 3) For functions and actions, use $ref

      Should we use $ref to reference the identify of something that must be externally defined (i.e., the function in a functionimport or entity type of an entity set or base term in a term)?

      In places where we choose $ref: should additional keywords that refine/decorate the use of the referenced element be placed next to $ref within the reference object, or should the reference be wrapped in an "allOf":[

      {"$ref":"..."}

      ] construct and the additional keywords be placed next to allOf?
