Luckily for all users Google didn't select TLS CCA (Client Certificate
Authentication) for their coming U2F system; only a moron would base a
future consumer authentication system on a scheme that is only suited
for VPN tunnels and invisible authentications like as ChannelID.

What's missing you may wonder?  Well, how about

- Compatibility with web sessions including timeout and logout
- A working credential filtering system
