Description stuart donald CLA 2010-06-21 21:59:53 EDT 
I would like to be able to use Spring IOC to create controller instances. This should be possible by providing a custom IExecutableExtensionFactory implementation as described here : http://martinlippert.blogspot.com/2008/05/dependency-injecti on-for-extensions.html. This is not currently possible as the controller instance is created using the class.newInstance method rather than delegating to a factory method.
