I don't think we look at those temp tables frequently enough to justify
keeping them around for all users.

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.
