The issue I was raising is the creation of tables in the default
'public' schema, which is the one used by users who don't have a schema
matching their name. I was saying that template1 should prevent
creation of tables by anyone but the superuser.
As far as temp tables, I think we should enable that for all
non-template1 databases.
(In fact, what happens if you create a database while a temp table
exists in template1. Seems it would not be cleaned up in the new
database.)
