If I were able to secure you a test account with two-factor enabled,
would that help?  I'm not saying I can (I need to beg my IT

Thank you for the reply and interest, and opening the bug to track
this.  I'll see if I can get you access to an environment that would
enable development and testing, if you think it'd be useful.
