Using Symfony Request service in Prestashop module

I'm currently developing a custom module for Prestashop and because Prestashop 1.7 is now based on Symfony I am investing some extra time in using the Symfony platform as much as possible rather than using plain old php or Prestashop libraries.

Prestashop now provides a way to obtain a container to Symfony services which can be used anywhere in a module. I am attempting to use this access the Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request services but without luck. Below is what I have tried so far:

$this->container->get('symfony.component.httpfoundation.request');

and

$this->container->get('request');

and also:

$this->container->get('request_stack')->getCurrentRequest();

all of which result in the error:

You have requested a non-existent service

Is it possible to use Request service via the container?

Kind Regards

No file or test is identified in the issue. Start by reviewing the existing PrestaShop module-container documentation and the Symfony Request and request_stack service usage described here; done means documenting the supported way to access the current request, or clearly stating that this is not supported.
