    <thetext>While the current text shown by Safari during a WebAuthn assertion [navigator.get()] makes sense in the context of a sign-in, it inhibits using the feature for other use cases such as payment authorization or step-up authentication. When invoking WebAuthn during these use cases, the current text displayed on the dialog presented by the browser leads to confusion (&quot;Do you want to sign-in to example.com using user@example.com&quot;).

Other browsers are using text that is somewhat more generic, enabling such use-cases:

* &quot;Use your security key with example.com&quot;
* &quot;example.com wants to authenticate you using a registered security key&quot;
* &quot;For security, ~application~ needs to verify your identity&quot;

Would it be possible to consider displaying a message that is slightly more generic during the navigator.get() operation, enabling additional WebAuthn use cases other than sign-in?</thetext>
