'stop-with' is just a constructor for a world, meaning (stop-with 10) is just a special kind of world. You could introduce it via a definition: 

(define lost-world (stop-with "you lost"))
(define won-world (stop-with "you won"))

And your event handlers could return one of these worlds as they see fit: 

(define (mouse-handler w x y me) (if (= x 100) lost-world w))

;; --- 

end-of-time is an imperative command that shuts down the current thread and custodian.

Yes. See docs.
