You know this because any further write or read from the streams
connected to the client (ie: the servlet's request's inputstream and
outputstream) will throw an exception.

This is not quite right... the thread will continue but any write or
read will cause an exception that will probably stop your servlet from
executing (it can't really do anything if it can't write to the
client).

You don't need to do this... just write your servlet method like
this:
public void doGet(....
throws IOExceptiom,ServletException
{
try
{
//your code...
}
catch(IOException e)
{
// here you know that something has gone wrong
// most likely that the client has pressed STOP
}
}
Hope that helps.
