No, that's not part of the proposal. The one case in which we'd
complain (at an error level TBD) is if a temp table is used to
define an old-style function's argument or result type, eg
create temp table mytable (id int, data text);
create function get_mytable() returns setof mytable as ...
This is problematic because the function will go away when mytable
does, no matter how its body is expressed. That's always been so,
at least since we invented dependencies.
