It's a legacy feature that W3C has never endorsed and best practice is to ignore, as many browsers plan never to support. Its included in HTML5 as a legacy feature. I think I stated that to you before, Anders, as well as others. Thanks for reminder though, I'll email HTML5 and make sure that this page points that out as its obvious its still causing confusion. > Disrespecting the fact that the Web Crypto WG doesn't seem to enjoy this topic, I'm 100% sure that the Google wallet doesn't use anything like <keygen>, CMP or similar PKIX-related protocols.
