> This issue relates to the following issue:
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-109
> Where capability detection is 'confused' by the PhoneGap libraries. However, this issue  is more specific and more critical.
> If you write a WP7 PhoneGap application that uses geo-location, this involved no 'native' geolocation API calls, i.e. this uses the WebBrowsers HTML5 geo-location implementation. 
> If you submit such an app to the marketplace, the automated capability detection which is run on all installed apps will fail to notice that the app uses geo-location and hence this capability will be turned off.
> The net result is, you will only discover that geolocation no longer works once your application is published!
