I came here because I too am missing this feature in the Desktop app (macOS Monterey, 1P version 8.5.0 80500057).
I have not tried the browser add-on to do this, partly because I have yet to add the extension to Chrome, but I will the next time I need to add 2FA to an account.

Reason for chiming in; I think most users edit their items in the main app, not in the browser plugin.
Adding new password, maybe, but editing and adding 2FA after the fact? ... don't think so.
At least all users I know (about two hands full) feel the same way as I do; feeling more comfortable using the real application to edit important data... Maybe we're just old-fashioned that way ;)

Apart from missing a few other features, the beta performs great! Absolutely love it!
