Description

Building a project in Cordova 3.4 I receive the following warnings from Eclipse.

1) Should explicitly set android:allowBackup to true or false (it's true by default, and that can have some security implications for the application's data)

2) <uses-sdk> tag appears after <application> tag

3) <uses-permission> tag appears after <application> tag

Would it be possible to either set a default for android:allowBackup or create a config.xml setting for it?

Is it possible to rearrange the order in which tags are written to the manifest?
