Subject: Advertising API, possible to set LE only?

In the Advertising API, org.bluez.LEAdvertisement1 has Type field
which can be "broadcast" or "peripheral".
When I set it to be peripheral, the outgoing advertisement packets has
the advertisement flags:
0x02 (BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_LE_GENERAL_DISC_MODE) and I guess that is why
when I try to connect the peripheral from my Android, I get a pairing
request back.

Is there a way to set BLE_GAP_ADV_FLAG_BR_EDR_NOT_SUPPORTED on the
flags as well to show I only support LE and so I can also skip the
pairing requests.
