    When I test this adding a plugin that requires variables (for example, 
`com.phonegap.plugins.facebookconnect`) and I don't specify any, this line 
throws (`v` is `null`). The logic here doesn't seem to coincide with the actual 
value returned by `getPreferences()`.

> When declaring a variable, it is possible to make it mandatory (by using the 
> <preference> tag), but there's no way to make it optional by defining a 
> default value.
> For example: <preference value="ENABLE_LOG" default="true" />
> This would allow users to keep on customizing specific features of the 
> plugins while not having to worry about all the variables.
