Can I Use SSL and ACL authentication/authorization only for SSL listener (not for PLAINTEXT) in Kafka?

I would like to run a Kafka cluster with 2 listeners. One SSL and one PLAINTEXT listener. The SSL listener should be secured by authentication/authorization via SSL and ACL. Only known users should be allowed to access it.

On the PLAINTEXT port any user or anonymous user should have full access.

If I set the property

allow.everyone.if.no.acl.found=false

however, anonymous users will no longer be able to access the PLAINTEXT port. Is there any way to configure the system as described above?
