AndroidManifest.xml supports the use of providing resources as attribute values (string resources, boolean resources, etc.). However, it does not support providing these resources from device-specific, qualified directories unless that qualifier is platform version (-vXX) or locale (-en, -es, -fr, etc.). This removes the ability to do any device-specific configuration at the manifest level, as we cannot provide a unique resource value based on remaining qualifiers like smallest width or density.

This bug was already filed on March 13, 2014 and marked as obsolete on March 15, 2015, however bug still exists in system.
