For me, the most common issue I run into with pgbouncer (after general administrative overhead of having another moving
part)is that it works at cross purposes with database-based sharding, as well as useful role and permissions scheme.
Sinceeach server connection is specific to a database/role pair, you are left with some unappealing options to handle
thatin a pooling environment. 

The next most common problem are prepared statements breaking, which certainly qualifies as a session-level feature.
