Type definitions could be cleaner if the Blot and BlotConstructor interface were removed about parchment HOT 4 CLOSED

I believe typeof ShadowBlot will return 'function', which is not the same.

So typeof ShadowBlot is essentially the constructor function, but it will also have any statically declared properties present. If you take a look at the PR I submitted you'll see that it ends up working quite well.

If you look through the Advanced section of the typescript handbook classes can be used as interfaces. typeof SomeClass is also an interface with a new(): SomeClass declaration and all static properties of the class.

The current implementation follows the example in https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/interfaces.html#difference-between-the-static-and-instance-sides-of-classes. You are right typeof ShadowBlot does more than the Javascript typeof so I'll take a look at removing BlotConstructor.
