          Hardware: Mac (Intel)

Hello all,

After doing regression testing for our (ForgeRock) SDK and its WebAuthn implementation, we came across this error in Safari that was impossible to understand:

> No desired properties of the to be created credential are provided

The only thing that helped us figure out the underlying issue (after a Google search) was the code comment above this line of code in your Github repo: https://github.com/WebKit/webkit/blob/main/Source/WebCore/Modules/webauthn/AuthenticatorCoordinator.cpp#L143. I would like to suggest that this error message be rewritten to help others find the cause of the error.

Thanks,

Justin
