What rule do you want to change?

no-restricted-globals

What change do you want to make?

Generate fewer warnings

How do you think the change should be implemented?

A new option

Example code

/* eslint no-restricted-globals: ["error", "Promise"] */

// Correct error on Promise.resolve
// Incorrect error on Promise<any>
const x: Promise<any> = Promise.resolve();

// Correct no error on window.Promise.resolve
// Incorrect error on Promise<any>
const x: Promise<any> = window.Promise.resolve();

What does the rule currently do for this code?

The rule reports an error on the type annotation (Promise<any>)

What will the rule do after it's changed?

With a new option (e.g. ignoreTypeAnnotation: true), the rule will ignore restricted globals used in type annotations
