    The only other consideration I can think of off the top of my head is that 
the edit-config stuff also made changes to the android.json (and other 
equivalent platform files) for edit-config support. They aren't breaking 
changes as far as I know because I don't think the information that is saved 
for the old config-file tag was altered (@ktop to confirm).
    
    I believe the `PluginInfo` object is the only thing used in the platform 
API that has changed. It might be worth someone else taking a look at the APIs 
that changed and where they get used, though.
    
    To avoid subtle breaks like this in the future, we should probably better 
delineate what objects are part of the platform API and what are not. The 
`PluginInfo` object gets used all over and it isn't immediately obvious that 
altering it could cause effects like this (especially when using it in other 
files in the same repo).
