What I would love to see is JSdoc annotations being output from the Ts->Js step. I already add types to everything, my api documentation should be simple to generate per function. Would be DRY and another feather in Typescript's cap IMHO. https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/10

It would be great if it did.

I heard somewhere that the TypeScript team were also looking at outputting closure annotation to help the closure compiler optimize TS output.

Closure supports nullability (and non-nullability) annotations which TS does not. Otherwise it's fairly straightforward to do this already, with the current compiler API.
