This is a good point. However current implementation doesn't allow to
do that. There is a related bug though, a minor one.
In session 1:
```
CREATE TABLE cities2 (name text, population float, altitude int);
CREATE FAST TEMPORARY TABLE capitals2 (state char(2)) INHERITS (cities2);
```
In session 2:
```
DROP TABLE cities2;
ERROR: cache lookup failed for relation 16401
```
Instead of "cache lookup failed" probably a better error message
should be displayed. Something like "cannot drop table cities2 because
other objects depend on it". I will send a corrected patch shortly.
Everything else seems to work as expected.
If you discover any other bugs please let me know!
