Description

Hi,

per the docs this is in the TODO section.
For a personal project this would be very useful to me.

Is there any work on it? If not, I am willing to try and see if I can implement it.

I have little experience with cryptography, so this is only if someone is willing to review my eventual implementation.

The issue names no files or tests, so first establish the protocol scope and implementation entry points with a maintainer; done means supported FIDO/U2F signatures are covered and reviewed.
