*Summary*
Add post-quantum cryptography and a common symmetric AEAD to the
set of cryptographic algorithms available in the Web Cryptography
API. This will enable developers to have access browser-provided
implementations of common quantum-resistant cryptographic
algorithms standardized by NIST. * ML-KEM - 768, 1024 * ML-DSA -

Can you say more why you want to run an OT (or is this a Finch
stable experiment) instead of just shipping
We'd like to get a few sites to test out the new algorithms in
real-world scenarios before shipping it, to ferret out any subtle bugs
that might've slipped past us. The WPTs test are extensive, but we've
already caught a few bugs that slipped in during the development
process (e.g. crbug.com/512509718 <http://crbug.com/512509718>, a JWK
export/import bug for ML-KEM fixed by crrev.com/c/7887900
<http://crrev.com/c/7887900>), and we'd like to prevent oddities from
getting baked into our implementation because we missed something (an
old historical example: https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40365706).
Ensuring that the algorithms are cryptographically correct is not as
big of a worry (as we're using BoringSSL's implementation of the
crypto). Performance is also not a huge concern, but it would be good
to get this evaluated with in-the-world usage.
