Aha! I'm sorry. I misinterpreted your reply. You mean I have to
create an application-specific password to use IMAP once I've enabled

Yes, I think that's right. I haven't enabled 2FA myself but that's how
it works when you have a Google Apps account using an organizational
SAML login, and you want to use IMAP. :)
Unfortunately, in my situation, the system is my employer's and may be
demanded back at any time, so I can't have the password in any form
saved on the machine.
