💻 Code

import Image, {type ImageProps} from "next/image.js";

export default function ImageWrapper(props: ImageProps) {
    return <Image {...props}/>
}

🙁 Actual behavior

TS produces the following JS output when verbatimModuleSyntax is set to true:

import { jsx as _jsx } from "react/jsx-runtime";
import Image, {} from "next/image.js";
export default function ImageWrapper(props) {
    return _jsx(Image, Object.assign({}, props));
}

Notice the empty curly brackets in the import statement that were left off after removing type-only named imports.

🙂 Expected behavior

The empty curly brackets are unnecessary in this case. It is precisely the output TS produces when verbatimModuleSyntax is not enabled:

import { jsx as _jsx } from "react/jsx-runtime";
import Image from "next/image.js";
export default function ImageWrapper(props) {
    return _jsx(Image, Object.assign({}, props));
}
