Well, I just tried `yarn` for giggles, and found it did work with cordova@8 .
Im not discounting that you've fixed a lot of bugs by more tightly integrating 
with npm, but it shouldnt be hard to have similar integration with the other 
package managers.  This train is coming.

I would question that tighter integration with `npm` solves anything, because 
there are a raft of differences between npm versions, and also massive changes 
in how npm works based on npm config variables, which are beyond your control 
unless cordova reads and understands the npm config, and possibly even override 
them, and also understands all reasonable npm versions, and how those config 
variables operate in each version -- usually a few are broken in any npm 
release.

Perhaps as an interim measure, cordova fetch at least checks which package 
manager is used, and fails early when it isnt `npm`, indicating that patches 
are welcome to support for other package managers, but those patches would need 
to pass the test suite, ensuring it is as supportable as `npm`.
