Support OData changesets for batch/unit of work updating

When using REST services in smart clients or rich JavaScript clients, it is normal to cache changes on the client side and send multiple updates back as a batch. Being able to leverage the change sets support in OData for this would be great.

    Thank you for this suggestion. We are investigating adding change set support to ASP.NET Web API OData. It won’t make it in for the first release, but we are considering adding change set support in a future version. Please vote if this feature is important to you.

        Saving a changeset is only part of it, perhaps the easiest part. More challenging is a great API for the developer to validate the changeset before letting it through. This is something we pay attention to in breezejs.
