I would like to inject a dependency into an ASP.NET MVC model, but I can’t figure out where in the pipeline to do the injection.
It’s very straightforward with a ControllerFactory, but not nearly as much when dealing with models.

I ended up creating a service locator: http://martinfowler.com/articles/injection.html#UsingAServiceLocator
I find it easier than dealing with an IoC container and trying to insert my DI code all over the MVC pipeline.
