Ah. That has never come up for me because I assign `propTypes` and `defaultProps` within the class definition using class properties. I had assumed you would be assuming I would too because you made mention of class properties in your post. Who would go to the trouble of setting up decorators without also using class properties syntax? Quite a few people, apparently, but the practice of using one and not the other baffles me.
Yeah, I actually wasn't 100% sure whether class properties + a decorator would play together as "expected". Thinking about it, I would guess they must, in which case defining those values as class properties also would be reasonable.
