Kind of agree, I like the idea of keeping plugins outside of platforms. What Cordova needs is better "default workflows", e.g. cordova platform add android cordova plugin add chrome-web-dev (install script sets up what you need + dependencies) cordova platform add windows8 cordova plugin add microsoft.net-dev (install script sets up what you need + dependencies) With this in mind, I think it's a little more obvious how upstream distributions could diverge from cordova. In that sense, I'm -1 to: supporting plugin dependencies for platforms
