Re: [webauthn] How to know if a user has already registered a device? (#1749)

> I think https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/pull/1576 and/or https://github.com/w3c/webauthn/issues/1568 are more likely candidates for solving this problem.

Indeed a "get-or-create" call like suggested in #1568  would do the trick. However, how it exactly would work (since both operations have very different input/ouput objects) sounds rather tricky.

But isn't that a "same platform" thingy. Like if I have an IPhone and a Windows Desktop, it won't sync credentials anyway.

> * The new conditional UI for WebAuthn (e.g. autofill) is quite reliable as it is platform integrated. You can test it out in Chrome on Mac and Safari (iOS 16, macOS 13).

Is this the "pick a user" dialog when you make a `get` without credential IDs? Or is it something else?

Thanks for the invitation, I'll think about it, I'm just a bit short on time right now.
