Plus, if we cared about forensics, we'd prevent re-use of the orphaned
schemas by new backends. That doesn't seem like a good idea for normal
use, but if we had a preserve_orphaned_temp_objects GUC someone could
add that behavior.
Isn't there some other GUC aimed at preserving data for forensics
(besides zero_damaged_pages)? Maybe we could just broaden that to
include orphaned temp objects.
