title: Proper way of configuring Jetty request timeout
body: <p>I would like to drop any request which takes longer than x seconds, and attend to the new request on Jetty. </p>
  
  <p>I thought this should be a very usual thing that people do, but apparently not. I cannot find any documentation on doing anything similar to this.</p>
  
  <p>I configured thread_pool idleTimeout, which understandably doesn't have any effect on this.  </p>
  
  <p>I also configured connector idle timeout. I have an endpoint which simply sleeps the thread. I thought that the idle timeout should kill this thread, as it is obviously idle, but that didn't happen either.</p>
  
  <p>I was wondering what is the proper way of handling these scenarios.</p>
