owner.inject with model type is broken in beta

Ember-Release: Working Twiddle
Ember-Beta: Broken Twiddle

It seems that using owner.inject targeting a model type in an initializer is broken on beta. Example:

// app/initializers/i18n.js
export default {
  name: 'i18n',
  after: 'ember-i18n',
  initialize: function(app) {
    app.inject('model', 'i18n', 'service:i18n')
  }
};

I have not had the chance to fulling investigate it yet. But it seems that these types of injections do work on other types (controller, component, etc).

So using the component/emberjs builds to bisect and it seems to have broken with this build: components/ember@c73cce4 which is unfortunately not super helpful because that was the beginning of the beta cycle.

I'll see if I can keep digging. Just looking at the diff it's hard to not see the factory-for feature and be suspicious about that.

I'm certain it is related to ember-factory-for feature, but I'm not exactly sure why yet.

@rwjblue I have some cycles at the moment. If you have any hunches, I'd be happy to investigate further. I could also try to write a failing test.

Talked with @rwjblue on slack. We agreed this was an ember-data issue and the issue should be moved over there. See: emberjs/data#4807
