+// TODO create a custom overlay similar to the iOS implementation because the ShellToast on WP is
+// very different from the native Android Toast the iOS impl is inspired on.
+// Differences:
+// - Only WP8 update 3 will show a Toast when in the foreground
+// - A ShellToast can't be positioned
+// - A ShellToast has a fixed duration
+// DOCS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj662938(v=vs.105).aspx
+// --> Conclusion: ShellToast is more like a localnotification/pushmessage, so it's a nice WP8 impl of the LocalNotification plugin,
+//                 So we'll only add WP8 Toast plugin support if we can create an similar impl as the iOS version of this Toast plugin.
+//                 Hence, leaving out the WP8 config in plugin.xml for now.
