jcayzac has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webauthn: == Support for PWA authenticators == Following the approach of the [Payment Handler API](https://www.w3.org/TR/payment-handler/), there could a way for a web application to get "installed" inside the user agent as an authenticator that end-users could then use to authenticate on other web properties using the Web Authentication API. While most-certainly out of scope for the Web Authentication API, this could be provided as a separate document by our working group. That document would describe the registration mechanism, and provide web bindings for the [Authenticator API](https://fidoalliance.org/specs/fido2/fido-client-to-authenticator-protocol-v2.1-rd-20191217.html#authenticator-api) available in a worker context. Any suggestion as to why this would be a very bad idea or any advice/guidance as to how to proceed to kicking this off would be greatly appreciated. We've been working with a separate, native authenticator for a while but going PWA makes much more sense IMHO, for a number of reasons I can go into if asked.
