@TimBarham I see your point, but all places where I saw that engine name
usage all devs thought they check cordova version - see examples below. Taking
into account that we will apply this change only in next/future cordova version
where we have pinned platforms versions lower than cordova version itself non
of existing plugins will be broken.
Also, I see that this is not covere in docs at all so we may want to
contribute some info to Plugin Dev Guide
InAppBrowser plugin
```
<engines>
<engine name="cordova" version=">=3.1.0" /><!-- Needs cordova/urlutil
-->
</engines>
```
phonegap-facebook-plugin
```
<engines>
<!-- Requires > 3.3.* because of the custom Framework tag for iOS
[CB-5238] -->
<!-- Requires > 3.5.0 because of the custom Framework tag for
Android [CB-6698] -->
<engine name="cordova" version=">=3.5.0" />
</engines>
```
