Hi g,
we have the same question in one of our networks. We provide guest accounts.

well, we took a different approach. We simply use pam-scripts to create
home-dirs on login and remove them again on logout.
If there is a possibility to do this with tmpfs in ltsp this would be
nice. But be aware: a user only has to download or copy any big file and
your ram will not be sufficient.
