I noticed a number of places in this document where code was being
referenced but it was not marked as such. Adding backticks will instruct
the markdown parser to format these bits as code, which should improve
the readability of this document.
isMounted is an anti-pattern [0], is not available when using ES6
classes, and is on its way to being officially deprecated.
eslint-plugin-react recently added the react/no-is-mounted rule in
3.12.0 that prevents its use.

Finishes #633
When there are static variables like `propTypes` and `defaultProps`, we shouldn't export them until we have actually set them onto the `Component`. This may change if the current ES7 proposal for static class properties gets accepts, and we update to support it.
By exporting `propTypes` as a named export *as well* as attaching them to the "class", they can be explicitly imported by tests and other components in a way that aligns with the future ES6 module dependency graph, rather than as an arbitrary property that isn't statically verifiable. Doing both is great imo.
Thoughts?
