Yeah, and pg_attribute entries as well, which may be more problematic
because they are a lot. Did we get rid of pg_attribute entries for
system attributes already?

Can we actually get rid of pg_class entries for temp tables. Maybe
creating a "temp pg_class" which would be local to each session? Heck,
it doesn't even have to be an actual table -- it just needs to be
somewhere from where we can load entries into the relcache.
