is `IdentityCredentialRequestOptionsContext` for FedCM UI only? #603

This context, which the RP can select one of from a predefined list, controls the wording in the browser UI.

It would be helpful to get this RP-selected context in the login_url as well as at the assertion endpoint to discern between the language used on the login page as well as in the possible Continuation API triggered popup that renders IdP-provided UI.

It is for FedCM UI only, yea. It seems plausible to have it in some of those, if you have specific use cases in mind?

Knowing our customers they'll want to have the copies aligned. Having the same hint that was given to fedcm is a straight forward way of aiding that.

Copies of what? I'm not following.

Apologies, I meant the used language/text

Yeah, this seems like a somewhat trivial and harmless (in theory, it increases a bit of entropy in the login_url, but I think it is plausible) change to make.
