Drew Walters commented on CB-298:
---------------------------------
Even though this is sort of off topic for this issue, thought I'd mention
something since it seems relevant to Patrick's question. In my mockup of a
BlackBerry implementation where everything is a plugin I maintained Camera and
navigator.camera as separate modules [1] which are defined by cordova.define
and then added to the global namespace with cordova.addPlugin.
External plugins could easily follow this model and even expose themselves on
window.plugins again if they wanted to.
