Hi Julio,

I think you didn’t understand what I mean regarding the „configured“ statusbar. 
Before the statusbar of the Cordova app shined through the in-app bowser, 
because the in-app browser was constrained to the safe area top not the top 
edge. Now the in-app browser is constrained to the top edge, which overlays the 
statusbar of the app and makes the in-app browser fullscreen. I think the 
better approach is to let the statusbar shine through the in-app browser rather 
than overlaying it. It’s now the question if the in-app browser should be 
constrained to the top edge if no statusbar is visible or always be constrained 
to the top safe area, letting the statusbar part of the app always shine 
through. I think it’s the easiest and best way to let the statusbar part of the 
app shine through the in-app browser, which means, the in-app browser is always 
constrained to the top safe area, no matter how the statusbar is configured.

Wow, nice catch. I really oversaw the two commits with the !. It’s true that 
this requires a major. And you are correct, what Niklas added with "fix(ios): 
check callbackId with regex (#1152)“ was removed before by "chore(ios)!: Remove 
unused private method (#1113)“, really funny :)
