+1, too.
However, personally, I'd like to wait until December to drop Node.js 8
support (as Jan pointed out in February
<https://github.com/apache/cordova/issues/79#issuecomment-465543935>, >30%
of the users are using Node.js v8).
Go for it with Node.js 6 and Node.js 12 though :)

PS: The plugins are often still using Node.js 4, I'm dropping it one by one
(see https://github.com/apache/cordova/issues/72)
