A true temporary table is going to be in its own temporary schema:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/runtime-config-client.html#GUC-SEARCH-PATH
"Likewise, the current session's temporary-table schema, pg_temp_nnn, is
always searched if it exists. It can be explicitly listed in the path by
using the alias pg_temp. If it is not listed in the path then it is
searched first (even before pg_catalog). However, the temporary schema
is only searched for relation (table, view, sequence, etc) and data type
names. It is never searched for function or operator names."

Yeah well if you are in pre-production why not, if no other reason then
you get another year of community support on the back end.
