create temp table .. on commit delete rows

# create temp table a ( a int ) without oids on commit delete rows;
# insert into a values(1);
# begin;
# insert into a values(2);
# commit;
# select * from a; a
---
(0 rows)

2)
# insert into a values(1);
# begin;
# insert into a values(2);
# rollback;
# select * from a; a
---
(0 rows)

It seems to me that 1) is good, but 2) makes some strange, unpredictable result...

You're running in auto-commit, mode. An implicit commit happens after 
this statement. Which clears the table.

Looks right to me.

Should something notice and raise a warning when people create a TEMP
table and have AUTOCOMMIT on?

Maybe if ON COMMIT is set to DELETE ROWS or DROP...

Added to TODO:
       o Issue a notice if CREATE TABLE ... ON COMMIT { DELETE ROWS |         DROP } is issued outside a
multi-statementtransaction

That is *not* what was suggested, and it doesn't seem very useful.  The
problem really comes when one uses a temp table in autocommit mode, not
at creation time.

The problem with the original suggestion is that the backend can't do it
because AUTOCOMMIT is a notion that exists only in the client-side code.
And the client can't do it very well because it'd have to parse SQL
commands, and even with that it wouldn't see CREATE TEMP TABLE commands
issued inside functions.

Ewe.  Yea, I will just remove it.  We can't issue a warning easily.
