It seems possible and interesting but I would rather add YubiKey  support first.
One weakness with password managers is key management for the password manger
software itself.  Two YubiKey device support please.   A pair of
YubiKey  devices allows a second device to be
kept in a sealed tamper evident envelop of the managers or company
office safe. The encrypted password-safe file
can be replicated as needed for portability.

One problem with the Google and Microsoft Authentication  is they are
tied to devices that
are easy to misplace and also have fragile to strong unlock features.
They are useful.
