can.$ is not referring to window.$ and hence this.element in controller doesnt have any 3rd party plugin methods like .dialog

can.$ is referring to $ object when jquery.js is loaded. All the 3rd party jquery plugin methods are added to window.$ and when controller is created this.element is wrapped with can.$ and  hence this.element in controller doesn't have any 3rd party plugin methods like .dialog

I tried System meta configuration but it didn't work. 

1. "meta": {

         "jquery": {

            "format": "global",

           "exports":"jQuery"

         },
