[Android-tools-devel] android gradle plugins setup

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

What I'd love to see is gradle automatically using the Android gradle
plugin package without the user having to modify the build.gradle.  But
that shouldn't happen in a non-standard way.

Does anyone know if gradle has some concept of "system plugins", i.e.
plugins that are included as part of the installed base rather than
something to be downloaded from a maven repo?
