npm specifier import types

so when I do something like
import * as rx from 'npm:rxjs'

console.log(rx)
import * as rx from 'npm:rxjs'

console.log(rx)
I do have the correct code imported, but types are all any. Is this the expected state of npm imports, or is there a bug here? I am running
deno 1.26.1 (release, x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)
v8 10.7.193.3
typescript 4.8.3

@dsherret is working on types support, it will probably ship in V1.27

@.bartlomieju / @dsherret are npm types supported in 1.28? It seems like they are https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/15960, but imports like
import * as rx from 'npm:rxjs'
import * as rx from 'npm:rxjs'
or
import { ScriptServer } from 'npm:@scriptserver/core'
import { ScriptServer } from 'npm:@scriptserver/core'
seem to still have any types

if you get a chance could you open a bug (i'm just heading out)? It looks like rxjs has an entry for "types": "index.d.ts",, but then that file doesn't exist in the package, so it looks like in that scenario we should use the exports -> . -> types entry for @scriptserver/core it distributes its types, but then it doesn't have a "types" entry in its package.json, but it seems like typescript still figures it out by resolving the "main" entrypoint and looking for the corresponding declaration file
