Plan B would be to arrange for the planner to ignore temp tables of
other backends whenever it is searching for child tables. Then the
behavior would be predictable: you never see any rows inserted in other
people's temp child tables (and cannot update or delete 'em, either).
I'm not sure if this is the behavior the OP wanted, but it seems at
least marginally useful.
