> TypeScript support is very valuable for us. 
> But, currently d.ts files for TypeScript does not include any info on typedefs defined in IDLs.
> For example, we have foo.idl like this.
>     typedef string userID
>     struct  Foo {1: userID s }
> Currently this is compiled into foo.d.ts like this.
>     
>    declare class Foo { s: string; }
> I should be like this, or we have to use string instead of meaningfull userID.
>    declare type userID = string;
>    declare class Foo { s: userID; }
