"cordova run" already builds before running (unless you add --nobuild). I
think it'd be pretty annoying if we had run fail with a "you need to build
first" kind of message.

In my mind, cordova-cli's purpose is to add magic. Otherwise, you would
just use plugman+platform scripts (and yes, some people do and that is
okay).

I think it would be awesome if you could clone a project, type "cordova run
ios" and have it do everything necessary to run the app (install, build,
and deploy).
