@purplecabbage I'm really concerned with this switch for WP8 as it is
breaking in nature. It changes how the Cordova WP8 JSON APIs behave and will
cause a fair number of plugins to break. All plugins that break will have to
make updates to support the new WP8 platform, and hence can't be used with the
older version (3.x) of the WP8 platform.
I would propose we don't make this disruptive change for WP8 which is a
platform with limited runway as WP8.1+ should be using the Windows platform.
WP8 should ideally be on life support and not making disruptive breaking
changes that affect the plugin ecosystem.
We should consider an incremental fix for file transfer and other plugins
that need better support for JSON parsing instead of changing the platform
itself: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file-transfer/pull/72
