I checked the following:
* Builds, installs and uninstalls cleanly on amd64
* /usr/local/bin/web-eid starts and shows a window explaining that it
wants to be invoked by a browser extension
* following the instructions in -chrome, a window pops up when clicking
"Authenticate" on web-eid.eu
I did notice that having a Yubikey plugged in seems to confuse the
application, i.e. either I didn't see anything when clicking
'Authenticate' or could only catch a hint of a flicker of the window
opening and closing again - possibly the application doesn't deal
well with other kinds of smartcards present.

Chromium works! I named our packages after upstream's official debian/ubuntu

-native has the cli/native messaging host, -chrome has the config for
www/chromium and a README pointing at the official extention plus unveil.
Once I sorted out the other chrome flavours in out ports tree, my plan
is to make -chrome ship those too; no need for -chromium, -irdium, etc.
With www/mozilla-firefox the extension starts the native app and
stdin/out sees data, but something goes wrong. Need to investigate,
then hopefully make www/firefox-esr work as well and make -firefox ship
it, in analogy to -chrome covering all the *chrom* ports.
No progress yet other browsers besides chromium.

Also works standalone without the extension in command-line mode.

Even without smart card, you can test -native by running `web-eid'
manually to get a Qt6 window.
For -chrome follow README, click 'Authenticate' on https://web-eid.eu
and get a window; with a smart card, follow the process and view the
resulting file in security/qdigidoc4; without a smart card, close the
window (your browser's extension successfully talked to the native
messaging host application).
Feedback? OK?
Ping.
