Improve intellisense for classes that have static methods

[GuskiS]

Search Terms

intellisense static methods on top

Suggestion

Static methods should appear on top of intellisense suggestions.
Or, add a way to hide other methods (see screenshot)

Use Cases

It would allow to access method name faster rather than search through whole of unneeded methods.

Examples

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.

Definitely +1 to this.

I know TypeScript namespaces are somewhat faux-pas at this point, but I still find myself using them quite a bit, for the reason that using a class with statics results in a cluttered intellisense experience. Things start moving toward XCode levels of bad when the class only has 1 or 2 public members, and the rest are effective cruft.
