The new plugman works for me, when coupled with my CB-4077 branch of cli.

I noticed that the <project-root>/plugins/<plugin-dir> directories don't
get removed for dangling dependencies -- only the top-level plugin is
removed from there. However, the dependents are removed from all platforms,
so the uninstallation works correctly.

I'll rebase my CLI against the newly-refreshed-master-branch and force push
it to github for you.
