Providing Identification
------------------------
-Instead of a forgettable freely chosen user name,
-Anastasis collects various static information from the user
-to generate a unique user identifier from that.
-Examples for such identifier would be a concatenation
-of the full name of the user and their social security or passport number(s).

-The information that can reasonably used here various from cultural context and jurisdiction.
-Therefore, one idea is to start by asking for continent
-and then the country of primary legal residence,
-and then continue from there with country-specific attributes
-(and also offer a stateless person option).
-
-Special care should be taken to avoid that information can later be provided ambiguously
-thus changing the user identifier and not being able to restore the user's data.
-This can be typographic issues like someone providing "Seestr."
-and later "Seestrasse" or "Seestraße" or "seestrasse".
-But it can also be simple typos that we can only prevent in some instances
-like when checking checksums in passport numbers.
-
-The user should be made aware that this data will not leave the app
-and that it is only used to compute a unique identifier that can not be forgotten.

-If possible, we should guide the user in the country selection
-by accessing permission-less information such as the currently set language/locale
-and the country of the SIM card.

+Providing Identification

+
+Select Authentication Challenge
+-------------------------------
+
+If Anastasis could recover the recovery document via any provider, it should
+show a dialog allowing the user to select one of the open challenges, and
+highlight which challenges still need to be satisfied for the various policies.
+
+Additionally, the specific provider and recovery document version should be shown.
+The user should be able to change the provider or recovery document version,
+resulting in a switch of the recovery document and policies. If the user has
+already satisfied some challenges of the current recovery document, switching to a
+different recovery document should only be done after a confirmation pop-up dialog
+warning the user that the existing progress will be lost.
+
+When selecting a challenge, the user may be asked to confirm making a payment
+for this challenge if the provider requires payment.
+
+
+Payment
+-------
+
+Typcially, this would be the canonical wallet payment confirmation dialog.
+
+However, in the case of a security question, the payment confirmation should
+be combined with the dialog where the user enters the security answer (so
+instead of an ``Ok`` button, text showing the amount due and ``Pay`` should be
+used -- except of course if the security question challenge is free of
+charge).
+
+
+Enter Challenge Response
+------------------------
+
+If the challenge was not a security question, the dialog to enter the security
+code (PIN/TAN) should open after payment. The security code field should have
+a prefix ``A-``. However, the user should be able to enter both only the
+numeric code, or the full code with the ``A-`` prefix (or ideally, the user
+cannot delete the pre-filled ``A-`` text).
+
+
+Success
+-------
+
+The user is informed about the successful recovery. We may want to do this
+as part of a separate screen, or simply with a notification bar in the
+main wallet screen.
