jcjones has just created a new issue for 
https://github.com/w3c/webauthn:

== Clarify the definition of "origin" ==
See comment: 
https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/pull/154/commits/cd6d4601264bd2b46e50574bdf6fff38f4baa089#r73287180

` +:: The concept of <dfn for='web'>origin</dfn> and the 
<dfn>Navigator/dfn> interface are defined in [[!HTML5]]. `
> this definition is not strictly true. unfortunately whatwg (and thus
 W3C) have plowed ahead on re-defining origin without coordinating 
with IETF wrt RFC6464. E.g., see 
https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/ietf-http-wg/2016JulSep/0225.html
