Manually inserting a view

I am using a third party library typeaheadjs for an ajax drop down.

I want to render an ember view in each dropdown element, typeahead supports a suggestion hook for this.

            suggestion: function(model){
                var view = Ember.View.create({
                    model : model,
                    template: Ember.Handlebars.compile('Hello {{model.id}}')
                }).createElement();

                return view.element;
            },

model is an ember-data model. The return element needs to be the html to insert into each <li> tag. The following works but the binding {{model.id}} is never rendered, I just get Hello.

Any ideas why?
