Note though that the spec currently says:

  If the 'xlink:href' attribute has an invalid IRI reference (the
  target element did not exist, for example), the 'discard' element
  itself must still be removed following activation. 

Though it’s not explicitly state that an invalid IRI reference results
in no <discard> element other than itself from being removed, it is
implied.
