While digging deeper into Webflux, Coroutines and Spring Security I found that I can't access the ServerRequests pricinipal:
reqeust.awaitPrincipal() always returns null.
I'm using coRouter and all I do is:

suspend fun categoriesGet(request: ServerRequest): ServerResponse {
       val principal = request.awaitPrincipal()
       println("PRINCIP: $principal")
}

when I use the standard-non-coroutine router I'm getting the expected result:

fun hello(request: ServerRequest): Mono<ServerResponse> {
        return request.principal()
            .map { it.name }
            .flatMap { userName ->
                ok().contentType(MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON)
                    .syncBody("Hello $userName")
            }
    }

is this a bug?
