I agree with your opinion. See the attached patch.

It defines sepgsql_temp_object_t for all the temporary objects being
constructed on "pg_temp" schema. The temporary schema itself shall
be also labeled as "sepgsql_temp_object_t" to avoid increasing of
unnecessary type_transition rules for each underlying object classes.
