This is huge! It sounds like they're finally going implement cross-device synced credentials; a move I've been advocating now for the last two and a half years[1].

Widespread support for this feature is, in my opinion, the last thing needed to make WebAuthn viable as a complete replacement for passwords on the web.

The white paper is here: https://media.fidoalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Ho... Seems like they announced this back in March and I missed it somehow.
