For the reset case, how about this text addition:

(even if there are no valid handles or all are read-only)

In this case, the routine returns MPI_SUCCESS if all variables are started successfully, otherwise MPI_T_ERR_PVAR_NO_STARTSTOP is returned. MPI_SUCCESS is also returned if MPI_T_PVAR_ALL_HANDLES is passed in handles and if no handles are valid for session or all valid handles represent continuous variables. Continuous variables and variables that are already started are ignored when MPI_T_PVAR_ALL_HANDLES is specified.

In this case, the routine returns MPI_SUCCESS if all variables are started successfully (even if there are no non-continuous variables to be started), otherwise MPI_T_ERR_PVAR_NO_STARTSTOP is returned.  Continuous variables and variables that are already started are ignored when MPI_T_PVAR_ALL_HANDLES is specified.
