But, you could easily write a function (say in PgPlSQL) and run it on schedule, where you could check "IDLE IN TRANSACTION" session and compare their start_time to system time, and then based on your criteria you could kill suspect session/transaction. But this could be dangerous; some long-running transactions could be perfectly valid.
