agl has just submitted a new pull request for https://github.com/w3c/webauthn: == Type transport strings as DOMStrings. == Currently transports are represented as an enum. However, WebIDL has strict enums. (I.e. an RP which sent an unrecognised transport would make the whole structure unparsable.) This means that every time we add a transport, we break all existing browsers. In order to address this, this change retypes transports as plain DOMStrings. The AuthenticatorTransport enum still exists, but now only as documentation and registry — not as a factor in type-checking. See https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/pull/1275
