That's a consistent naming scheme, and \temporary is a perfect match
with \once, so I'm all for that name. \once changes the value for one
step, \temporary until it is explicitly \revert'ed (und unfortunately
\override alone permanantly overwrites rather than overrides).
or, again using a converter, en bloc from the original overrides
with \undo.
Temporary changes are important enough that we have had \once for a long
time already.
Fully agree, \temporary was really missing.
Cheers,
