Hi,

In an android library's manifest file, if I try to use the the built in 
placeholder "applicationId" in the manifest it injects the package name of 
the library instead of the package name of the parent application.

Example library manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
          android:versionCode="1"
          package="com.example.what"
          android:versionName="1.0">

    <application>

        <receiver
            android:name=".GCMPushReceiver"
            android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND">
            <intent-filter>
                <action 
android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE"/>
                <action 
android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.REGISTRATION"/>
                <category android:name="${applicationId}"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>

        <receiver
            android:name=".ADMPushReceiver"
            
android:permission="com.amazon.device.messaging.permission.SEND">
            <intent-filter>
                <action 
android:name="com.amazon.device.messaging.intent.RECEIVE"/>
                <action 
android:name="com.amazon.device.messaging.intent.REGISTRATION"/>
                <category android:name="${applicationId}"/>
            </intent-filter>
        </receiver>
    </application>

</manifest>


Will replace all instances of ${applicationId} as com.example.what instead 
of the parent application. If I try to add a custom placeholder value and 
define in the parent applications build.gradle it results in a build error: 
Manifest merger failed : Attribute category#${parentApplicationId}@name at 
AndroidManifest.xml:46:27 requires a placeholder substitution but no value 
for <parentApplicationId> is provided.


Is there a way to work around this other than having the parent application 
define the elements in its own manifest? It would be very helpful to allow 
the library manifests to be automatically configured in the parent 
application.

Thanks,
Ryan
