It would be convenient to be able to use Backbone with multiple versions of jQuery or other libraries that are used for DOM manipulation. Currently Backbone only supports libraries defined as window.{jQuery, Zepto, ember, $} at time that backbone.js is loaded, with no ability to explicitly override the library used at runtime.
