They can also be set to drop with ON COMMIT DROP, this way they
disappear after the tranaction is commited.
I use them in this way on my web server to sort file listings, and it
works well since each apache DSO connection gets one connection to the
database.

Temporary tables are not per-user, but per-connection. A user can be
connected twice, but a temporary table created on one connection is
not visible from the other connection. Also, temporary tables are
temporary--they disappear after the connection is closed.
