             Summary: Support reading of <feature> param values other than 
"onload" and "x-package" keys
                 Key: CB-6458
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-6458
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: config.xml
            Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
            Priority: Minor


There is no component for this, this relates to config.xml.
For the proposed solution, there are no changes needed to the config.xml 
specification, since the feature tag already supports param child tags.

I'm only speaking for iOS, not sure about the other platforms.
The problem is, there is no access to these additional values in plugin code. 
The plugin has to re-read the config.xml to access this.

What are the alternatives in config.xml/plugin.xml?

1. preference tag on the plugin level
2. preference tag on the platform level

The problem with either of these two approaches is that if another plugin has 
the same key, it will clobber your preference. The ugly solution to that is, to 
namespace your key with your feature name.

Proposed solutions:

1. Create a plugin in cordova-labs  to read these extra param values without 
touching the core code.
2. Modify the core code to read these extra param values, and expose them to 
the user
