Any way to use generics to define fields/as part of parameter classes?

[ghost]

Is there a way to mix generics with class/field definitions? More specifically, I want to define multi-field option "classes" to use in the standard named-and-optional-parameters-via-table Lua pattern. I want one of those fields to be a generic and, ideally, the generic type can define my return type. Some things I've tried and their flaws:

---"Undefined type or alias `T`." (and note @generic cannot appear between @class and @field)
---@generic T
---@class Options1<T>
---@field type T type of object

---No errors, but `type` isn't recognized and `type: T` is not syntax highlighted
---@class Options2<T> { type: T }

---Allows `type` to be recognized but limits me to a one-line definition for all my fields, no comments, etc.
---@alias Options<T> { type: T }

---Make a T
---@generic T
---@param options Options<T>
---@return T
function MakeStuff(options)
    return options.type:new()
end

function TestStuff()
    --"local result: unknown"
    local result = MakeStuff{type=Object}
end

This seems very similar to #1216, which is a duplicate of #734. Basically, it is not supported as of right now, but I believe is currently being worked on.

I have created a "super issue" to try to keep track of the issues involving generics, if you would like to monitor the progress there.
