When I compile APK using Crosswalk (ionic browser add crosswalk; ionic build android), the size is too big (~20 MB). I think using crosswalk lite will reduce the size of compiled APK. But I have no idea to hack [ionic-cli](https://github.com/crosswalk-project/crosswalk-cordova-android/tree/crosswalk-lite) to use crosswalk lite.

My question is:

1. Will this support crosswalk lite?
2. Is there any hack (or temporary solution) to use crosswalk lite?
