As far as I remember, it is a known limitation of pluginify that it can not include views. This will be "fixed" with a future release.

Depending on which version of steal you have you can add the following lines to package views with in pluginfied scripts.

steal/build/pluginify/pluginify.js

in this method
s.build.pluginify.content = function(steal, param, opener){

add / replace

if( /\.ejs/.test(steal.rootSrc ) ){

                content = s.build.pluginify.getFunction(steal.text, 0)
                content = '(' + content +')(jQuery)'

            }else if (/steal[.\(]/.test(content)) {

                content = s.build.pluginify.getFunction(content, 0)

                if(content){
                    content =  "(" + content + ")(" + param + ")";
                }
            }

the end result might look something like this.

    //gets content from a steal
    s.build.pluginify.content = function(steal, param, opener){
        if (steal.buildType == 'fn') {
            // if it's a function, go to the file it's in ... pull out the content
            var index = funcCount[steal.rootSrc] || 0, contents = readFile(steal.rootSrc);
            funcCount[steal.rootSrc]++;
            return "(" + s.build.pluginify.getFunction(contents, index) + ")(" + param + ")";
        }
        else {
            //s.print('rooSrc ' + steal.rootSrc)
            var content = readFile(steal.rootSrc);
            //########## added by Jesse Baird 1/15/2013
            //test for view
            //##########
            if( /\.ejs/.test(steal.rootSrc ) ){

                content = s.build.pluginify.getFunction(steal.text, 0)
                content = '(' + content +')(jQuery)'

            }else if (/steal[.\(]/.test(content)) {

                content = s.build.pluginify.getFunction(content, 0)

                if(content){
                    content =  "(" + content + ")(" + param + ")";
                }
            }

            //s.print('steal ' + content )
            //make sure steal isn't in here
            return content;
        }
    };
