Description
type Foo<T> = {}
const Something = []
type FooSomething = Foo<Something>
// ^
// Can not find name "Something"
Instead, suggest that Something
is in the value space and user possibly meant typeof Something
.

Checklist
My suggestion meets these guidelines:
- This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
- This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
- This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
- This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, etc.)
- This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.
