Adressing a heckler is not one of them.
The umpire isn't suspending the game to address the heckler. S/he will address BOTH coaches and allow them to address the heckler.

BTW, there is also nothing in the rule book that dictates an umpire to work a game. If it is bad enough to stop, I just as well walk away and deal with the consequences at a later date.
