chardev TCP socket keep-alive

Can keep-alive option be added to chardev TCP socket?
My config is the like this:
-chardev socket,id=charserial0,host=0.0.0.0,port=41234,telnet=on,server=on,wait=off

The problem is that without keep-alive, if the user disconnects without gracefully terminating the TCP session, the session stays open forever. In this state, new sessions can't access the chardev, since the zombie TCP session keeps exclusive access.
I think TCP keep-alive option would provide a elegant solution for this problem.
