How to define static property in TypeScript interface

Question

I just want to declare a static property in typescript interface? I have not found anywhere regarding this.

interface myInterface {
  static Name:string;
}

Is it possible?

Follow @Duncan's @Bartvds's answer, here to provide a workable way after years passed.

At this point after Typescript 1.5 released (@Jun 15 '15), your helpful interface

interface MyType {
    instanceMethod();
}

interface MyTypeStatic {
    new():MyType;
    staticMethod();
}

can be implemented this way with the help of decorator.

/* class decorator */
function staticImplements<T>() {
    return <U extends T>(constructor: U) => {constructor};
}

@staticImplements<MyTypeStatic>()   /* this statement implements both normal interface & static interface */
class MyTypeClass { /* implements MyType { */ /* so this become optional not required */
    public static staticMethod() {}
    instanceMethod() {}
}

Refer to my comment at github issue 13462.

visual result: Compile error with a hint of static method missing.

After static method implemented, hint for method missing.

Compilation passed after both static interface and normal interface fulfilled.
