    It would be really great to have this feature as this is one of my main headaches when developing (and maintaining) Cordova Android plugins. This would definitely help make plugins play nice with each other.

> Many plugins need to refer to JARs from the Android SDK. They currently embed a copy of the respective files in them and install it into the application's libs/ directory. This however might create incompatibility issues with other plugins which may use the same or dependent JARs.
> A good alternative would be to be able to specify a relative path to the SDK directory in <lib-file> as it is now possible with the <framework> element with custom=false.
> E.g. 
> <source-file src="src/android/com/plugin/android-support-v13.jar" target-dir="libs/" />
> could become 
> <lib-file src="extras/android/support/v13/android-support-v13.jar" custom="false" />
