I think we should document plugman-only projects, because that's what exists today. It's much easier to start to use plugman for a project than to use the CLI, especially if you've done your own modifications to the Java code in your Cordova project, which a few people have done. I see nothing here that helps our existing users maintain their codebases. If this project teaches you anything, it should teach you that just because you want people to use your project a certain way, it doesn't mean that they will.
