+Add a "Back" action to the sign-in two-step verification (second factor) step. This lets a user who reached the 2FA screen with the wrong account (for example, after signing in with the wrong social account) abandon the attempt and return to the sign-in start to sign in again, instead of being stuck with no way out.
