Request
It would be really useful to be able to specify a suiteName in SharedPreferences' iOS implementation.
Usages
For example, if we want to create Widgets on iOS, the Widget uses a different NSUserDefaults environment than the main app, which makes it impossible to access the widget's settings from our Flutter App and back. Having the ability to specify a suiteName effectively allows us access a same App Group and thus persist data between the twos.
Here is a my PR solving this issue : flutter/plugins#2861
