Description

NOTE: Although devs can override the matching logic for splash screen images, this ME is written from the standpoint of lending new users a simple way to be very specific about which image to use on a given device.

Steps to reproduce:
01 Add two splash screen images, one portrait (768x1024), one landscape (1024x768) to a project that will be run on both iPad and Playbook. Make sure there's an element that sits adjacent to the top or bottom edge of the landscape image (or use attached).
02 Set the minResolution to 700 and aspectRatio accordingly for each instance of SplashScreenImageSource.
03 Run in ADL to emulate Playbook

Actual Results:
Adobe logo is cut off in landscape mode when viewing on Playbook
I can't specify a unique minResolution in landscape to force the matching logic to pick a different image for Playbook (which is only 600px high), because both devices have an equivalent max resolution of 1024

Expected/requested Results:
Instead of overriding the matching logic via Capabilities.version.indexOf("QNX"), it would be much more approachable to set a platform property directly on SplashScreenImageSource.

Workaround (if any):
