Thanks for doing this! Most of it looks great, a few minor bits plus RFC3986 base URI determination being a bit more complex than is stated here. Plus making it explicit that referencing an OAD by that OAD's $self requires examining potential target OADs for $self.

@frankkilcommins it's interested that you softened that language with a "can" while @baywet made it a "MAY" over in Overlays. I have no idea which is better and am fine with either, I just thought I'd make a note of it.
