Actual Behavior:

• What is the issue? *
  I am using $mdDialog bindToController option with TypeScript classes transcompiled to es6. My locals are not getting bound to the controller. With es5 option, the locals are getting bound to the controller.
  Looking at the AngularJS documentation, they are depreciating binding to the controller before a constructor is being called (even for es5). As per the attached AngularJS discussion, this will be depreciated by AngularJS 1.6 (not a default option). So this will soon become a bug.
  Properties set before constructor is called when using bindToController angular.js#14206
  I am using $onInit function to initialize the controller bound values. This $onInit function is not getting called.
• What is the expected behavior?
  $onInit function should be called when bindToController is set to true
