Was Jane Austen a closet Jacobite?

Someone suggested somewhere, probably not seriously, that Jane Austen was a supporter of the House of Stuart.Does anyone know how this conclusion was reached , or whether it is a complete joke? Somehow I cannot see her seriously toasting the king over a bowl of water, can you?
