With apologies for being prolix --

I see that 1Password already does support YubiKeys as a 2FA option, but it is at present only configured to require a 2FA option when initially enrolling a new device. It is encouraging to see token-style technology incorporated into 1Password, now it just needs to be strengthened to its full potential:

I request that the YubiKey (+ YubiKey PIN, optionally) 2FA method be extended in the form of a additional 1Password account preferences, as follows:

Checkbox: "Require 2FA token on EVERY 1Password unlock, on any device. (Mobile/desktop/web.)

Additional option: "...after X minutes, hours, days". (I.e. only require the 2FA token for 1Password unlock after a configurable time period since previous unlock.)

If it is not already clear, it is also important to be able to configure 2FA-unlocking so it is the ONLY available method, not just an additional/backup method alongside plain password, TouchID, or Apple Watch.
