couch logs an [error] record if a client disconnects
----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-452
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-452
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Mark Hammond


If a client makes a request which returns multiple rows (eg, a query) but 
disconnects before reading the response, couch logs:

[error] [<0.66.0>] Uncaught error in HTTP request: {exit,normal}
[info] [<0.66.0>] Stacktrace: [{mochiweb_request,send,2},
             {couch_httpd,send_chunk,2},
             {couch_httpd_view,send_json_view_row,5},
             {couch_httpd_view,'-make_view_fold_fun/6-fun-0-',12},
             {couch_view,fold_fun,4},
             {couch_btree,stream_kv_node2,7},
             {couch_btree,stream_kp_node,7},
             {couch_btree,fold,5}]

This could lead someone to conclude couch has an error which is not correct.  A 
simple [info] record recording the premature normal exit is probably more 
appropriate.

FYI, the easiest way I found to repro this was to execute:

% python -c "import urllib; 
urllib.urlopen('http://127.0.0.1:5984/your_db/_design/your_design_doc/_view/your_view?reduce=false').close()"

which causes Python to open a connection and close it without reading anything. 
 I'll attach a patch as suggested generally by jchris.
