Jason Chase reopened CB-8444:
-----------------------------

After an appropriate deprecation period, the plugin needs to be changed to fully remove the clobber of `window.open`.

As an API change, this would require a major release.

> Where Cordova plugins map 1:1 to W3C API's it's great that they clobber the corresponding namespace. Geolocation is a good example.
> However, it doesn't really feel like this plugin is a 1:1, so perhaps it should be available at another name, e.g. `window.iabOpen` (the old API should be preserved until the next major though, since to keep backward compatibility).
