Setting AutoHideSplashScreen has no effect in Cordova 3.0.0 for iOS

Setting AutoHideSplashScreen to false has no effect in Cordova 3.0.0 for iOS.
I'd like to control the splash screen by my own. Since the app needs some seconds to render the view it needs to be shown a bit longer. The 'navigator.splashscreen' is installed within the project.
Is there any workaround i can apply to this?

Note
I mentioned that setting FadeSplashScreen and FadeSplashScreenDuration do also have no effect.

What am i doing wrong? Or is it a bug?

I can confirm this, see my post on the list: groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/phonegap/MX5VRmL3HwY Will let you know if I can find a workaround, although I dont have any clue right now. - Carsten
Here's the related JIRA issue, as well: issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-4374 - might be worth watching : ) - Carsten

A solution was posted on this Cordova JIRA Issue CB-4374:

Try adding this in your config.xml for the Splashscreen plugin:

<feature name="SplashScreen">
    <param name="ios-package" value="CDVSplashScreen"/>
    <param name="onload" value="true" />
</feature>

The solution in the JIRA thread is to use the updated code at https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-splashscreen/blob/master/src/ios/CDVSplashScreen.m and to add an onload parameter in config.xml:

<feature name="SplashScreen">
    <param name="ios-package" value="CDVSplashScreen"/>
    <param name="onload" value="true" />
</feature>
