I want to use a fingerprint reader for login.gov and id.me but do not seem to be able to get my just added fingerprint reader to be usable by Firefox (129). It identifies in hardware as a CS9711Fingprint. Anyone have any input about this?

This is about forms-os-reauth (authenticate with the operating system) for form fill actions.

# This operation requires the user to authenticate with the operating system (device sign-in) forms-os-reauth = .label = Require device sign in to fill and manage passwords
