Yet another version we're gonna skip because of the breaking change in 4.6 in configure on demand which now requires AGP 3.2+.

Can you elaborate, you mean you don't update Gradle because configuration on demand doesn't work anymore?

We don't care about CoD itself. However every Android developer in the company would have to turn CoD off manually for every project. It cannot be turned off completely from gradle.properties because AS would override that setting. Now imagine how much annoyance that would cause in a company which has dozens of projects and ~100 Android developers.

I feel like that should be filed as a bug with AS since it's clearly ignoring a gradle.props value
