I'm doing some research on mobile SDK management for a project at work and I think we could mirror the approach that Cordova did for plugins. I haven't really dug into the plugman and plugin management code before (other than some basic skimming to understand what is going on) but basically what we'd like to do is allow for a plugin type architecture regardless of the use of Cordova (so for native apps). If I keep the cordova plugin structure with plugin.xml and package.json then if we wanted to expand and eventually turn native sdks into cordova plugins it would be trivial.
So my question is, does this feel like a completely new coding exercise or does anyone see a good way to reuse some of the plugin work that has been done for Cordova. Basically I'll be moving files and updating manifest and plist files just like we do for Cordova without the requirement of having cordova installed or having the project be Cordova based.
