Discover does not notify the user that a reboot is required to implement certain updates. Kernel and some other system updates require reboot. The developers should determine which updates require reboot and notify the user.
Where aren't you seeing notifications? On Neon and Kubuntu, I get them. There's a little pop-up in the corner, and then there's a little rotating arrow icon in the system tray until you reboot. You don't see those?

discover also shows no notification on my neon dev unstable despite my report is marked as "fixed". https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381812
The commit that fixed that issue went in after the branch for 5.11.3, so it should show up in 5.11.4. I'm going to mark this as a dupe of that, and let's hope it's fixed in 5.11.4. If you still see it once you've got 5.11.4, please re-open that bug. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 381812 ***
This duplicate is wrong. This bug report is about how we don't tell the user that she needs to reboot, not about the available updates notification.
