If you remove the create permission from all of the schemas for the user
they shouldn't be able to create non-temporary tables. On my empty 7.4
devel database, after doing

REVOKE CREATE on SCHEMA public FROM public;

a random non-superuser account on the database no longer can create tables
(apart from temporary ones).
