One of the biggest problems with bitcoin is security.

I would like to see developed a new Bitcoin Desktop wallet that gave the option to its users of enabling 2FA security.
The company who develops this will be surely a winner...
Am I wrong or is there someone already working on it?

the newer versions of Electrum has the option to enable two factor authentication. you can check out the Electrum wiki page for more information here:

it is a service provided by TrustedCoin, it is with a remote server acting to co-sign transactions, adding another level of security in the event of your computer being compromised.

you also have your seed to restore your wallet in case you didn't have access to TrustedCoin for any reason.
