    One side effect of this is that the main cordova webview will also have its userAgent changed (navigator.appVersion) once at least one instance of InAppBrowser has been created. It seems the userAgent setting will apply to all webviews.

> Currently you can set a custom user-agent for the main Cordova webview by overriding the init method for the DroidGap class. However, when opening a page in the InAppBrowser, that webview will still contain the default user-agent.
> There are two solutions that I have thought of to this:
> 1. Set the user-agent of the InAppBrowser webview to whatever the user-agent in the Cordova webview is set to. (This is what I am currently doing, as it was a one line change, but it requires rebuilding Cordova manually)
> 2. Have some sort of configuration option to set the user-agent for the InAppBrowser. This would allow a different user-agent from the main webview, but is also a more involved change.
