OData v4.0 aggregate queries (aggregate query syntax)

Question

For example, I have an object model:

Product
{ 
  int ProductId,
  string Name,
  List<Sale> Sales
}

• I want to use the aggregate queries to get total Amount of Sales:

GET: Product?$apply=groupby(Name, aggregate(Sales(Amount with sum as Total))) (follow as oasis-open standard)

--> Got error: UriQueryExpressionParser_CloseParenOrCommaExpected=" ')' or ',' expected at position {0} in '{1}'. ". position at Amount.

• I change the query to:

GET: Product?$apply=groupby(Name, aggregate(Sales/Amount with sum as Total))

--> Work successfully!.

My question:

--> Had current version OData Core supported the aggregate query syntax as my example "aggregate(Sales(Amount with sum as Total))" or NOT?

Please give me your advice.

Thank you very much

The query

Product?$apply=groupby(Name, aggregate(Sales/Amount with sum as Total))

should throw exception as well, it's not supported yet.
