This is a seldom used remendy by the irs, but in this
case, Reducing the lien to judgment would violate the
discharge injunction. Being illegal, it won't happen.

Tell Doc not to retire for 10 years. The lien expires
10 years after it is filed and since the tax
obligation will have been discharged (your facts), the
lien cannot be refiled.
This is the only way I know to protect liened
retierement, just wait out the lien before you retire.

So debtor is screwed then? Even if we discharge the taxes, the IRS can seize the pension proceeds upon retirement?

Lien never leaves the pension plan - no need to "re-attach"

Yes it is dischargeable (well, most of it). However, I found another recent case that states that the IRS lien against ERISA qualified pension plans does NOT qualify it as a secured creditor by virtue of the pension plan, because the pension plan is not property of the estate. IRS vs. Snyder, 343 F.3d 1171 (9th Cir. 2003). Query, however, whether that also means that post-discharge the IRS lien does not re-attach to that pension plan!?

I just found the more recent case that my mind TOLD me I had seen before that overrulled the Edmonston case...it's In re Soderlund, 236 BR 271 (9th Cir. BAP 1999) which expressly provides that the undersecured portion of a claim IS included in the unsecured debt limit calculations.
My remaining question is: How does one calculate or use the ERISA qualified pension asset when figuring all this out? Presumably the IRS is secured by that asset, but what is its value?
