Entityframework.docs: Adding migrations with startup in different project -

Please can support be added for adding migrations with dotnet-ef when the startup.cs is in a different project to the DbContext.

dotnet ef migrations add --startup-project ./ProjectWithStartup/ --project ./ProjectWithDbContext/

The Using a Separate Project article is about adding migrations to a project that doesn't contain your DbContext. Having Startup in a separate project is mentioned a few places throughout the docs.
