DOM lib is missing Intersection Observer API on window global

[OliverJAsh]

TypeScript Version: 2.3.4

Code

The browser Intersection Observer API defines these on the window:

window.IntersectionObserver
window.IntersectionObserverEntry

Expected behavior:
These should be defined in the DOM lib typings.

Actual behavior:
They are not defined, so I get type errors.

Can this issue be closed? Looks like the change has already been merged into master?

Aha, looks like they are in the typings, just not exposed on the window interface:

new IntersectionObserver(() => {}); // no error
window.IntersectionObserver // error: Property 'IntersectionObserver' does not exist on type 'Window'.

As a temporary fix

export {}
declare global {
  interface Window {
    IntersectionObserver: typeof IntersectionObserver
  }
}

IntersectionObserverEntry lacks isVisible property.

Edit: after a quick test, this isVisible seems to be always false.
