Proxy not inferred as a promise when it's a nested inside a proxied object as a property value

[ivancuric]

If a situation arises where you need to pass a proxy()-ed object to another, the TS types lose track of what should be a Promise.

// worker
import { expose, proxy } from 'comlink';

const createProxyObject = () => {
  const someOtherObject = { /*...*/  };

  const newObj = {
    someOtherObject: proxy(someOtherObject),
    getSomeOtherObject: () => proxy(someOtherObject),
  };

  return proxy(newObj);
};

expose(createProxyObject);

export type ExposedInterface = typeof createProxyObject;

// main
import { wrap } from 'comlink';
import { ExposedInterface } from './worker';
import MyWorker from './worker?worker';

const worker = new MyWorker();

const wrappedWorker = wrap<ExposedInterface>(worker);

const remoteWorker = await wrappedWorker();

// `someOtherObject` should be `Promise<Remote<...>>` 🚫
const otherObject = await remoteWorker.someOtherObject;

// `getSomeOtherObject` properly infers `Promise<Remote<...>>` ✅
const objectViaGetter = await remoteWorker.getSomeOtherObject();

Bro, I don't want to advertise, but you'd better try my InterCom and InterWork from the Blazer package (in Github). I myself did not like Google Comlink for many things (including problems with ImageBitmap, Blob and other objects, as well as the above mentioned reasons), and decided to write my own library. Leave this company alone. Yeah, you wouldn't believe it, I did the impossible.

This sounds so toxic that I'm certain that I won't.

For what it's worth, neither Surma, nor myself work for Google!

Any ideas what could be done here? Or should I just assert types manually?
