How to limit the number of AP login attempts?

I'd like to prevent hacking my esp8266 AP by brute-force attempting wifi wpa password. Is that possible? It seems to be something relatively low-level, since typically an AP configuration consists only of a simple call with a few parameters. So it doesn't sound easy. On the other hand, it seems pretty trivial to throttle a client (Mac) when that is trying many wrong passwords in a short time.

The complete association process is handled in non-public code. So you'd to ask Espressif to implement something like that.
