Will the face ID in iPhone X work while wearing sunglasses? I won't be able to buy it if it does not.������

If we have to "guess" based on the Keynote and people using the phone samples after the keynote it should work if the glasses are not too dark. They showed someone using / wearing glasses in the demo and said the Facial Recognition grows and learns your face. Since it does not work with your eyes closed, black glasses may fail, not sure.
