Maybe there was a fix, but I still get the popup to enter my password
for my google account every now and then, sometimes every 5 minutes,
sometimes only once a day.

It is not fixed on 15.04!

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  There is no obvious way for users of Google Two-Factor Authentication
  to add their Google account to GNOME Online Accounts.

  [Test Case]

  1. From GNOME Shell, run System Settings and click Online Accounts (If there are two Online Accounts launchers, click the second one with an icon that looks like two halves of the globe are being plugged into each other). If running Unity, you can also run the GNOME version by running XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME gnome-control-center.
  2. Add a Google Account. Use your regular password and then enter the Google Two-Factor Authentication Code verification code when prompted.

  What happens
  ===========
  The Google account is added but immediately there is a warning
  "Expired credentials. Please log in again."

  [Regression Potential]

  Only Google accounts should be affected. The CalDav provider in
  Evolution Data Server has been ported to also work with OAuth v2.

  Workaround
  =========
  1. Open Password and Keys and type Google in the Filter box.
  2. Double-click on the GOA google key.
  3. In the Password field, click Show Password and replace only the password part with your application-specific password. See https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833 for instructions on generating an application-specific password.

  Original bug report
  ===================
  Since update to 13.04, using my Googlemail-Account via gnome-online-accounts leads to permant re-authenticating at google.

  Nearly immediatly after authenticating my Google-Account, gnome-
  online-accounts asks for re-authenticating. The Dialogs on google show
  security captchas along the passwort and 2-step-pin entry.

  Evolution is not able to sync calendar or any mails, even directly
  after authenticating at google.
