Two issues I can think of: - uninstall() needs to know which files where installed by either the preinstall or afterinstall script. - I'd like users to be able to pass options/arguments to the script (overriding default build options) e.g. cordova plugin add some.db --utf8 false For unix people, it's like a ./configure --utf8 false --with-stuff && make install But can't do this right now with cordova since we'd need to store the plugin install arguments "--utf8 false" to update a plugin.
