Well I am currently working on my first game. But once i get this one finished I have a million ideas falling out of my head for future games, so I'll probably be battling with these kinds of issues in the future. Hopefully the status bar issue is resolved for me now though. But if you made a plugin that gave a bit more control: allowing the nav bar to be visible at all times for eg, that could be useful?
The plugin will call the methods of the official cordova plugin: github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-statusbar
I think these will be pretty good and useful:
StatusBar.overlaysWebView
StatusBar.styleDefault
StatusBar.styleLightContent
StatusBar.styleBlackTranslucent
StatusBar.styleBlackOpaque
StatusBar.backgroundColorByName
StatusBar.backgroundColorByHexString
StatusBar.hide
StatusBar.show
