Depends on what you mean by "Cordova Plugin". When I say Cordova Plugin, I am talking about the native bits (iOS/Android/etc) that plug into Cordova. The JS side could maybe be made as a "device storage" adapter that would then talk to the correct native pieces but that's a little beyond me at this point as I haven't looked into Cordova contribution much yet.
