Description
I have started to implement "Go-to-Implementation" by consumming tsserver "implementation" command inside Eclipse to do the same thing than Java:

See https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/issues/8268
The tsserver "implementation" command returns list of FileSpan (file, location)) but not the text of the implemented class ("MyServiceA", "MyServiceB"). If you see the below screenshost, it should be really cool to have too the name of the classes which implement the interface.
Many thanks

Research direction
Start with the tsserver "implementation" command and the related TypeScript issue 8268; the report says it currently returns FileSpan entries without implemented class names. Trace the command's response data and determine how class names could be included, then verify that implementation results expose names such as MyServiceA and MyServiceB.
