Non-TOTP TFA and the Watchtower check

Yesterday, I was rectifying the logins listed under Watchtower → Two-Factor Authentication and spotted a few ways that this process can be improved. One other is at https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/115669/keep-watchtower-tfa-login-on-screen/p1?new=1

There are some accounts which:
1. Don't actually allow you to set up TOTP MFA, such as Wikipedia (that I could find).
2. Allow you to **only **have non-TOTP MFA (FIDO2 security keys, for example) set up, such as Namecheap.
3. Use a different authentication system on subdomains which don't support TOTP MFA, such as Namecheap's helpdesk (https://support.namecheap.com/).

With this in mind, it would be useful if we could exclude and/or define non-TOTP MFA methods for logins so that they don't incorrectly appear in Watchtower.

    Hi @mythofechelon!

    You can manually remove a Login item from that section of Watchtower if you add the 2fa tag to the item ;)
