Controller Class without Controller at the end of the name?

Question

For the reasons that are not important to the question, I would like to know how to make my controllers / routing work in ASP.NET MVC5 if my controller class names do not end in Controller as per convention? Do I need to manually register them somewhere?

The Controller suffix is baked into the the ControllerDescriptor and ControllerTypeCache classes making it hard to override. One way that comes to mind is to write a custom controller factory and override the GetControllerType method.
