Killing threads in debugger [message #269621]

Is it possible to kill an individual thread when debugging a web
application?

Here's the scenario: When running a web server like Tomcat in Eclipse's
debugger, when I make a web request through the browser to my application
a breakpoint is hit - at this point I may want to terminate that thread.
When I right-click and select 'Terminate' instead of 'Terminate All', the
whole web server itself shuts down rather than just that one thread. Is
what I'm trying to do possible?
