I'm a bit confused about 'engines'

To my surprise, "cordova-plugman" actually returns node's version:
https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugman/blob/master/src/util/default-engines.js

Some questions:

-          Should "cordova-plugman" be renamed to "node"?

-          Are there many plugins that depend on "version x" of 
cordova-android, cordova-ios, xcode, ...?

-          Are 'engines' meant be build time requirements vs. runtime 
(~webview) requirements?



It all looks like build time, with the exception of "cordova" where cordova.js 
exec() is required by the plugins.
