Hmm, no, that'd be pretty awkward.  WebAuthn/device-attest and CMW are
both wrapping formats, putting one inside the other makes little
sense.  Either use one or the other.


Stepping back a meter or two, I think device-attest is great at
covering its specific use case, but I don't see it as a good fit for
other, more generalised uses of attestation for enrolling.

I have the case of CC workloads in mind. They are transient in nature,
and there can be an unlimited number of them per device. In this
scenario, the device-attest semantics are not suitable, and
the fact that device-attest is opinionated about the supported
identifiers (which I think is a good thing!) makes it fiddly to adapt
to this situation.

What I’d like to have is a more generic "attest-01" method, for which
we'd have carte blanche regarding the supporting framework and we are
not tied to WebAuthn/device-attest.

cheers, t
