I'm thinking this is more of a doc issue that I need to create. I've experimented before with a symlink solution, but this is quite error-prone. e.g. moving the current .framework into a separate Cordova-1.5.0.framework for example, and Cordova.framework always symlinked to the latest.

Inside the .framework itself (it's a bundle) there should be a VERSION file. 

I agree this whole identification thing could be better.

There is some info here in FAQ item #10: https://github.com/apache/incubator-cordova-ios/blob/master/README.md

> It is becoming somewhat difficult to keep up with the frequent releases of Cordova in our projects, especially when some breaking changes are possible. If it is possible for each release of Cordova to be installed with an identifier than it is easier to take a slow migration between releases.
