Ok, I'm a bit confused. Are we suggesting to get rid of the cordova.plist entirely? Does that mean that if a dev wants to change one of those settings they have to leave Xcode and modify config.xml and update the project? That certainly doesn't seems a bit cumbersome and not taking advantage of the OS specific tools. I can see using config.xml for Cordova specific things like the whitelist and plug definitions but some of the Cordova.plist items are iOS specific. Am I missing something?
