Hey Based on the feedback on those two issues, and other places, I think that most hated change from Cordova-Android 4.0 that we didn't fix in Cordova-Android 5.0 was the fact that we have an undocumented way of generating an arbitrary build number that makes absolutely no sense. Furthermore, this screws up people's automated builds, and can cause the version code to reach MAX_INT.
If you want to know why nobody has touched it until now, it's because everyone hates working with Gradle. I can say the exact same thing about why we're not using ProGuard. Now, I'm starting on my flensing of the gradle files that we have in here, trying to figure out what we can rip out and I'm wondering if anyone is actually using the multiple APK generation before I remove it. If people are, I'm going to have to figure out another way for this to happen, because this is definitely breaking people's applications, and using random hooks isn't a good answer. So, is anyone using this, or can this feature die! Joe
