I would have thought that the battle of control was fought and won years
ago. Essentially the credit card issuers control the system, since they
pay the RP, give the users credit, and learn about all the users'
transactions. I suspect they would love to learn more about these
transactions as well, but that would violate the users' privacy. Once
the system will allow credit card issuers to issue electronic tokens
rather than have the user type in credit card details, it will reduce
fraud and cost.
Agreed.
FIDO is able to do this.
This is claimed every now and then.
We are still waiting for the FIDO alliance to publish information showing how.

Indeed it does.
who control the web? user? server?
Or as I would like to put it: how can third-parties add something new

I would not expect one.
There's a big battle going on behind the scenes. Its about who
controls the payment information and the data. The data from all
those
transactions will be worth billions.
Companies like Apple, Google and Microsoft want it, while other
companies like mobile OEMs and carriers want it. The first casualty
appeared to be Isis/Softcard.
