(Sorry for all the messages) Fixed all the remaining breaks, and now all tests pass without modification and cordova-cli doesn't need changes.
However, there is a new npm dependency on cordova-app-hello-word from cordova-lib. We will need to release that to npm before publishing the next tools release. Steve/Andrew, I will attempt to update coho etc, but I'm not sure of all the places to update release instructions for this new thing, nor am I sure of all the licensing requirements. Care to advise / help?
