Research direction

The issue identifies index.js in v1.0.6, around line 61, and the loadAndWaitForAureliaPage entry point; start there and reproduce with an app calling aurelia.setRoot("src/app", document.body). The report does not define the desired custom-bootstrap behavior or a test, so those need agreement before implementation; done should be validated against that agreed behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I'm guessing this plugin isn't used much anymore, so fixing this isn't the highest priority, but I ran into a problem and I thought I'd at least document it.

The loadAndWaitForAureliaPage function checks for the existence of the [aurelia-app] attribute to see whether Aurelia bootstrapping is complete yet. I'm guessing this is based on a standard bootstrap, because when I checked our app the attribute never appears and we bootstrap manually. (Specifically, we do aurelia.setRoot("src/app", document.body).)
