See#339 for existing discussion on this.

The ESLint plugin should implement a new version of theno-floating-promises rule from TSLint. This rule requires type information, and no equivalent exists yet in other tools.eslint-plugin-promise offers some of the functionality, but because the plugin does not have access to type information, it is not nearly as powerful. Implementing this rule will help organisations with replacing TSLint with typescript-eslint tools instead.
