Description

The otherEntity element contains most of the same elements as the dataTable
element. For some reason the numberOfRecords is only contained in the dataTable
element. I think it would worth thinking about having it available but not
required in the otherEntity element. This way it would be easier to change a
dataTable element to an otherEntity element. It also seems like an
inconsistency. The main difference between the two elements is that a dataTable
requires that that the attributes are described and a otherEntity does not
require that. I think adding the numberOfRecords (not required though, 0 to many) to the otherEntity elements may help with converting dataTable entities to otherEntities when there is problems with listing the attributes.
