Well, right now that's just syntactic sugar, so I think the only real
benefit might be visibility (though, really we should be marketing the
idea that you can create almost *any* object in pg_temp!).

What would be a lot more interesting is if creating a temp function
didn't involve writing an entry to the catalog (something being
discussed for temp tables right now).
