ApolloQueryObservable not working with rxjs forkJoin #bug

I have the problem that I need to resolve two data sources for a screen and can start rendering screen as soon as both are available. However Observable.forkJoin seem not to be working with Apollo. Is this a bug or am I doing anything wrong?

import {Observable, Subject} from "rxjs/Rx";

let fork = Observable.forkJoin(
  this.apollo.watchQuery({query:query})
);
fork.subscribe({
  (data) => console.log(data);
})

It’s because an Observable from the watchQuery method never completes. The forkJoin operator will work with query method (angular2-apollo since v0.8.0 returns an Observable instead of a Promise).

@manuelfink You define what the switchMap operator returns so how it can return watchQuery instead of query?
