Getting the IDENT proxy to show closed (RST)

Does anyone know if this is possible?  

Most services that require IDENT only need an RST packet from it, not a completed connection.  I would really enjoy the ability to configure the proxy to return 'closed' rather than open - meaning just refuse the connection altogether.

The packetfilter won't do this, by the way, because its idea of refusing is not a TCP RST, but rather one of the ICMP messages.

Any ideas on this issue would be appreciated...
