OData v4 Support
Version 4 of OData is released and supported by Web API. (And since WCF Data Services is dead, Web API OData is all we are going to get.)
Please consider support for version 4 OData endpoints.

I would love to use LinqPad to demo OData V4 for folks interested in learning about OData. I used to use this when introducing folks to earlier versions of OData and it was a great tool!

+1 on request for v4 support. I don't believe the work-around posted is applicable to all scenarios. For instance, if your model is generated based on the incoming request, from a non-static collection of possible models.

Just FYI, the current workaround is to compile a v4 proxy client using the OData Client Code Generator (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/odatateam/archive/2014/03/11/how-to-use-odata-client-code-generator-to-generate-client-side-proxy-class.aspx) and then import that into LinqPad as a reference. This provides the "Dump" experience with the results from your proxy queries, but it does not let you interactively shape OData queries using Linq, the way the built-in v3 Data Services Client did.

I presented at a .Net User Group and most attendees did not know you could point LinqPad to an OData source. Probably only a minority of developers use LinqPad to query OData, but for those that do, v4 support is critical.
