Discuss: native TypeScript support?

The suggestion to add `babel-loader`, or even completely replace the TypeScript loader is rather disappointing - there surely is another way.

Although the approach is different, because I haven't looked long enough at the Babel plugin, I've implemented native-TypeScript React HMR, using `react-proxy` and a TypeScript transformer: https://github.com/elsassph/react-hmr-ts

I'll continue looking at the Babel plugin to see whether it can be written as a TS transform but I don't understand it completely yet...
