    I'm working on a pull request for cordova-plugin-splashscreen master. The 
only way I found to set up for the plugin development was to copy 
SplashScreen.java from the repo into another project, make the changes, then 
copy it back to cordova-plugin-splashscreen repo, then push. That's because 
SplashScreen.java in cordova-plugin-splashscreen is not in the right package 
folder structure, so it can't be linked into a workspace directly. This is a 
little painful. Do you have better way of doing this?

> I will be submitting a pull request for this enhancement shortly.
> Current splash screen scales images non-uniformly to fit into splash dialog. 
> This approach does not work well for many typical splash screen images that 
> contain scenery or text and look bad when aspect ratio is not preserved. 
> 9-patch images work, but they have to be carefully designed so that the edges 
> can be stretched without producing undesired effects.
> The purpose of this enhancement is to allow use of non-9-patch images without 
> stretching, similar to CSS "background-size:cover" capability. For this to 
> work, splash images have to have large safe area all around that can be 
> safely cropped off.
> With this type of splash screen, it is usually necessary to use different 
> images for portrait and landscape orientations, so a second part of this 
> enhancement is to add an option to reload the drawable when orientation 
> changes.
> Examples of the two preferences are shown below. Both are optional and 
> default to False to maintain current splash screen behavior.
> <preference name="SplashMaintainAspectRatio" value="true"/>
> <preference name="SplashReloadOnOrientationChange" value="true"/>
