Randy Frank first mentioned it to me, but yes, that is nice.

The latest version of Duo Mobile asks the user why they are
disallowing the authentication step. The response is logged in the
admin console, so yes, all kinds of fireworks can be made to happen
(via the admin API).

That's a good point but I claim it boils down to an (interesting) UI
problem. In any case, separating the authentication factors (using the
post-login handler or whatever) permits some interesting flows that
are currently not possible.
