I suppose this might be part of WebAuthentication level 3? While I'm
aware that passkeys is the Apple marketing name, I was unable to find an
existing issue in the tracker referring to this feature.

Google appears to be using the passkey terminology as well:

Title:
  [upstream] wishlist: Passkeys should be supported

Status in Mozilla Firefox:
  Confirmed
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Starting from 2022 the main big tech companies introduce Passkeys.
  Or in the more official name Fido Multi-device credentials.
  Basically this is a webauthn login, but the private key is distributed among 
all the devices in a persons Google, Microsoft and iCloud account. 

  If a person wants to login in on a device not in the account a QR code
  should be scanned after which the computers do some cryptographic
  magic via Bluetooth. And the new device also has the private key.

  This method is supposed to be a lot safer and more convenient than the
  usual passwords.

  As far as I know this system is open.

  My wish is that Ubuntu and Linux in general also will support this
  Passkeys thing.

  Regards, Martijn.
