This works brilliantly with the various sync clients (Linux/Android/Windows...), asking for the 2-factor auth when we generate the app-password on first setup, and never again afterwards, but it's a bit of a pain with web access.

Is it possible to have the option to set a long-lasting cookie in the browser after a successful 2-factor authentication, so that we don't need another SMS on every web login on the same machine?
