Isn't the whole point to avoid the reconnection overhead, especially for
connection poolers?  DISCARD ALL shouldn't cause any cleanup that wouldn't
otherwise occur when a session disconnects.  True global data (not just
session global) should be excluded.

A better wording of the promise would be: "discard all" leaves the session
in the same state it would be in if the underlying connection were dropped
and re-established.
