I don't think that you need it for any other GUC, so I really don't
know why you're concerned about a slippery slope. The only other
resource GUC that is scoped per session that I can see is
temp_buffers, but that doesn't need to change, since parallel workers
cannot use temp_buffers directly in practice. max_files_per_process is
already clearly per process, so no change needed there either.

I don't see a case other than temp_file_limit that appears to be even
marginally in need of a specific note.
