Strong authentication for PayPal versus WebPayments

Please, this posting is about strong authentication from a technical point of view and
has nothing to do with linked data etc...

PayPal is a member of the FIDO alliance, the SDO behind U2F.  U2F is optimized and
architected for SOP (Same Origin Policy) operation which makes it a perfect fit for
super-providers like PayPal, Google and Facebook.

The problem as I see it, is that there are no counterparts to U2F for the "distributed web".
Well, actually there are, but the issue haven't really been recognized yet :-)
