As a WSGI application, Django should have no
idea that the connection has been closed. The connection to the client is
just another resource, like a database connection or a memcache server.
Nothing will happen asynchronously to raise an exception; you'll only see
an exception at the point where you try to use the resource.

You're only going to see an exception at the point where you try to write
out to the http response object, and your wsgi server fails because the
other end of the connection is closed.
In django 1.4, http response is lazy, as well, so even writing directly to
it will probably not raise an exception until the view has returned, anyway.
