Hi, Thanks for reaching out. This choice of words comes directly from the specification(s) and mimics prompts in e.g. Chrome, Firefox, and more. While we would like to stay consistent to these other implementations, the bar to accept something like this is indeed lower due to its simplicity if it's especially important to our users. |

I'm sure plenty of smarter people than me have worked out why it's better to call it a PIN than a passphrase, but we use "passphrase" here, so a prompt saying "Please enter the PIN: " looks a bit odd to us.
A quick look at the code here:
pam-u2f/util.c
Line 1251 in b5846bb
implies it might not be like a big deal to add this as a feature, simply by replicating the functionality of "cue" which is shown immediately below there.
But I do note your stated reluctance to add config options: #322 (comment)
