Hello,

To conclude, can you tell me the best way to ask the developement of this new 
feature ?
Is it to create a github issue ?

I'd like to post this, if you see somthing to change, please, let me know :

Subject : 
[New Feature] Allow to change WebSettings of the WebView by config file, or at 
least, the allowFileAccess attributes

Message :
Hello,

Is it possible to develop a new feature, to allow changing WebSettings of the 
WebView by config file, or at least, allowFileAccess attributes

Currently, the only way is to hard code settings config here : 
https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/blob/6.4.x/framework/src/org/apache/cordova/engine/SystemWebViewEngine.java#L152

It would be usefull if we can configure any settings of WebSettings class : 
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebSettings
Maybe by using preference in config.xml ?

Thanks.

Stéphane

Thanks again
