Commented Issue: ODataMediaTypeFormatter requires Entity Framework models [859]

Hello,

I'm trying to use ODataController instead of ApiController in order to get the formatters I need to support the Patch operation with Delta<T>.

However, I am constantly getting http 406, Not Acceptable.

After digging into the source code I see that the formatter itself is assuming that I am using EDM model and fails to deserialize my types.

Please remove this dependency as I don't understand why I need EDM in order to support patch operations on my objects.

Thanks
