Details

1. Go to test site https://webauthn.bin.coffee
2. Click on "Create Credentials" (but don't perform USB verification)
3. Refresh page

Result:
Browser non-responsive, eventual crash.
Could be related to bug 1400940, although that one happens after the verification has been aborted via tab switch.
Depends on: webauthn
Priority: -- → P2
Yeah, that should be the same. We're cancelling the current U2F request once the page's visibility state changes.
