I've finished playing with third-party plugins. If anyone else wants to have fun with them, use --thirdpartyplugins in createmobilespec.js, and then find the manual test for them.
TLDR - most compiled/worked fine. Two that interacted with Views a lot had lots of compile errors, but in the end I don't think there's a good way to fix them on our end. I've also taken some time to try and eliminate copy & paste between AndroidWebView and XWalkWebView. I'd love to get some feedback on the changes (and hopefully get them in). More info /w PRs here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8510 Another thing that came out of looking at these plugins is that they add in their own Layout, or have logic to handle various parent layout. So... I think we'd be fine (and should) delete our top-level LinearLayout. Plugins and embedders can easily add in layouts if they want. Still waiting on a tools release for 3.7.1. Still need to update platform docs for 4.0.0 But... I think that's it!
