Any indication when we'll get WKWebView support now that cordova-ios 4.0.0 is released? thanks

[Cordova-ios is still at 3.8.0 -- cordova-android 4.0.0 was just released, with Crosswalk support.]

I'm not sure when we'll be able to use WKWebView for cca apps -- it has some serious limitations that we're still trying to figure out how to deal with. Lack of network interception is interfering with our bootstrap code.

Ok. Thanks for the info. I wonder why Apple isn't working more closely with the community on this. WKWebView has basically been unusable since the release of iOS 8.0. If I remember correctly even Chrome for iOS still uses UIWebView because of the limitations :(
