Asp.Net Core RC1 -> RTM DI changes - Removed FromServices

Question

I'm using structure map with the AspNet Core 1.0 RTM. It appears they have removed using the FromServices attribute on properties. This breaks the code below because I am now unable to inject the ClaimsPrincipal. I'm not sure how to get the DI system to pickup this property. Do I need to create a custom InputFormatter or something else. That seems like a lot of work to get this working again.

Startup.cs

public class Startup {
    public IServiceProvider ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services) {
        var container = new Container();
        container.Configure(i => {

            i.For<IHttpContextAccessor>()
                .Use(new HttpContextAccessor());

            i.For<ClaimsPrincipal>()
                .Use(x => x.GetInstance<IHttpContextAccessor>().HttpContext.User);
        });

        container.Populate(services);

        return container.GetInstance<IServiceProvider>();
    }
}

Model.cs

public class Model {
    //[FromServices] <-- worked in RC1
    public ClaimsPrincipal Principal { get; set; }

    public string Value => Principal.Identity.Name; 
}

TestController.cs

public class TestController : Controller {

    public IActionResult Test(Model model){
        return Ok();
    }
}

As far as I know, one of the main reasons this was removed is because of the confusion surrounding where it works and where not. For example, FromServices was MVC's model binding concept and some users tried using it outside MVC and found it to not work.

You can however create your own model binding attribute to achieve a similar behavior.

For example, this works with decoration on a model..NOTE I haven't tested wit on a controller's property.

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Property, AllowMultiple = false, Inherited = true)]
public class FromDIAttribute : Attribute, IBindingSourceMetadata
{
    public BindingSource BindingSource { get { return BindingSource.Services; } }
}

public class Customer
{
    [FromDI]
    public IFooService FooService { get; set; }

    public string Name { get; set; }
}

UPDATE:

Found the announcement about its removal over here: https://github.com/aspnet/Announcements/issues/115
