[Jupakabra]

Steps to reproduce

dotnet new console -o Project -n ConsoleApp
cd Project
dotnet restore
cd ..
dotnet run -p Project

Expected behavior

Project runs and prints out Hello World!.

Actual behavior

Unauthorized exception is always being thrown

This used to work with previous version, it now only works with full path:
dotnet run -p Project\ConsoleApp.csproj
or being inside a Project folder:
dotnet run

I'm surprised this significant (IMO) regression vs the old SDK hasn't seen more interest (and that the only plan is to fix it in 2.0.0 rather than in a bugfix release for 1.x).

Note that the documentation for dotnet run explicitly says you can specify a directory (emphasis mine):

-p: Specifies the path to the project file to run. It can be a path to a csproj file or to a directory containing a csproj file. It defaults to current directory if not specified.

I repro that a lot, sigh, so 👍
