Background

I hate offhandedly writing a type out in one location that I'll need to cut/paste later.

Proposal

Given a selected type segment, provide the ability to extract that type into

  • an interface if given a type literal or
  • a type alias otherwise

in any scope where each captured type is available.

Optionally, a parameterized type alias can be made available in scopes where captured types are not available.
