Scaffolded models are created with "_" instead of "." separator

This command

Scaffold-DbContext "Server=yada;Trusted_Connection=True;" Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer -OutputDir Connect.Model

resulted in models with namespaces like this:

namespace Domain.Connect_Model

Expected:

namespace Domain.Connect.Model

This is one of the observations I made during #9723
This is one of the cases where Migrations & RevEng are differing.

RevEng is trying to csharp-ify the output path before making namespace.
output dir arg
a.b.c => a_b_c
a\b\c => a.b.c

@smitpatel Oh wow... this seems very convoluted.
Hopefully my comment here: 9786 will be considered. Seems like it would solve a number of issues if we could just scaffold from the project/directory where we want our models to live.

BTW in my case "X.Y" is both a valid directory name and .net namespace.

[smitpatel]

"X.Y" is valid .net namespace but not valid c# identifier (you cannot name a class like that). It shouldn't have mattered but that is wrong assumption reveng tool did.
