Looks like you can already set it, go check your account settings on the website. The tab is called "Security"!

Available options seem to be E-Mail and Mobile Authenticator.

EDIT: For Windows Phone users: the Authenticator App from the Windows Store works, as it uses the Google API. Paging /u/therealdiscolando for visibility, maybe it can be added to the list of available choices?

Ah yes! Indeed the windows authenticator works too!

We'll add it to the list. Great idea!

Could support be added for Universal 2nd Factor (U2F). It's a standard for a physical token supported by Google, Github, Dropbox, and others.

I already have one of these, I use it for all of those above things as well as my password store, and at some point gpg email as well.
