One solution might be to hand off authentication to a native control, use the native FB SDK to authenticate and get the token, and then back to the PhoneGap webview. I've used this hybrid approach with Rails and PhoneGap, and it's been a decent compromise. Use Rails for what it does well, but leverage the full native stack if that works better.
Another approach would be to grab the Facebook Connect response either with Javascript injected into the PhoneGap view on the client side, or using the native WebView hooks that let you do a kind of man-in-the-middle approach, so that your native app gets the token instead of/in addition to the Rails app. Both Android and iOS webviews provide native hooks that let you do this.
