Unused Variable for import used in object literal property value shorthand

[unional]

TypeScript Version:
1.8.2

Code

import funcA from './funcA'; // Unused Variable 'funcA'

// either
export default {
  funcA
}

// or
let a = {
  funcA
};

I can not piece together the issue here. is this unused variable in the generated JS? or is it flagged, where it should not? what is the actual behavior, and how is this different from what you expect?

[unional]

It is flagged by tslint through language service as a warning:

The warning is gone when shorthand is not used:

Ok. Thanks. Just about to do so

But could this be related to #3688?

I'll go around TSLint first. Issue created:
