By chance, I ran into this pre-existing use of the phrase "session variable".
introduced since 8fbef1090:

doc/src/sgml/ref/set_role.sgml:   <command>SET ROLE</command> does not process session variables as specified by

That's the *only* use of that phrase, but you'd have to change it to something
like ".. does not process role-specific variables a specified by ..".
