No, the documentation says it frees the objects (and has done
forever), so it should free them. I have code which depends on this
behaviour.
It depends on behaviour which does *not* exist so is already broken. With
inactive domains free'ing the object after destroy is non-sensical because
the domain still exists, merely in the shutoff state.
