Should this also support the "clock-frequency" property that 8250-style
serial ports support [1]?

For the flow-control properties, should we name that more generic? The
same property certainly makes sense for other serial-ports if it does
here. OTOH, I'm not sure it's actually reliable, because it also depends
on whether the other side of the connection and the cable support hw flow
control.
