hmm, i thought most people today were trying to solve the multi-device
use case.  Here, it sounds like we'd be back to single-device.  If we
allow ourselves to include "user retains a single device" as a
legitimate outcome, then the set of feasible solutions changes pretty
dramatically.

i'm not saying this is a bad thing (i actually think that single-device
stories are often much simpler to reason about and to engineer), but
it's quite a severe shift.  (e.g. you don't have to worry about sync,
and the size of your local storage becomes more important)

Or are you envisioning a way that you could abuse u2f in the
multi-device case?
