            Bug ID: 189279
           Summary: [WebAuthN] Make AuthenticatorManager
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

This task aims to make an AuthenticatorManager abstraction such that:
1) It lives in UI Process.
2) It manages different authenticators including their lifetime and task distribution.
3) It talks to underlying transport protocol, i.e., HID, BLE, NFC and internal. That means, it will then handle device discovery/removal and provides connections between authenticator abstractions and corresponding physical devices. This functionality could be implemented through some "Service" abstraction, like HIDService for instance.
4) It will also talk to the WebProcess via AuthenticatorCoordinatorProxy.
5) Finally, it will probably handle UI interactions as well, which is currently undefined.
