In a way I think it does make some sense: the conceptual credential "has" a user handle, but since the authenticator will never return it it's fine if the authenticator as an implementation detail doesn't store the user handle. But yeah, that could be confusing.

@jyasskin @christiaanbrand @jeffh thoughts on this?
