The server expects to complete an SSL-enabled handshake before your HTTP-level request makes it to Tomcat proper. Since you don't issue the GET/POST to Tomcat in this case, it certainly can't generate an HTTP-level error page in response.
Sniff the connection and you'll see. The "four squares" are likely your brower's approximation of the non-ASCII chars it received from the server when attempting a handshake.

Don't know how Apache's httpd server handles it - if I send an http request to the https port (eg. http://www.domain.com:443) which has ssl support, it managed to display something like:
"Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port. Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.
Hint: https://www.domain.com:443/"
I wonder if it's possible to hack the coyote connector to have the same behavior ...
