Also, if some user has taken up lots of space in /tmp, you can LART the user and delete the files; that's no different than a user filling up a partition by writing to /tmp (no reboot necessary in either case).

That assumes your system is still functional enough to allow you to do that. In a low memory/high swap situation, which this could easily trigger, logging in and clearing the files could be very slow, and the login process could time out before you get logged in.
