Re: [webauthn] How to deal with discoverable credentials? (#1764)

I got the gist of it. I guess I should paraphrase my problem. 

In the default use case, with predetermined username, it's straightforward. When a login attempt occurs, on the server side you associate a challenge to this user, then this challenge is signed using webauthn, then you verify  server side that the signature and challenge match. 

However, in the case of discoverable credentials, this association username <-> challenge does not yet exist. So what do you do? Do you maintain some giant pool of anonymous challenges to check from or what?
