There is no great need for that because you can get the semantics you're
asking for with "DROP TABLE pg_temp.tablename".
Furthermore, as a matter of good database management ideally the role creating and dropping temporary tables is different from the role that retains ownership of permanent tables - so that even if the wrong table was selected object permissions would prevent its being dropped.
I don't think I'd -1 a patch that attempted to provide some incremental improvement here but I just don't see one being written or getting enough support to go through. And that doesn't bother me - even if I was in a position to do so I likely wouldn't write one at this point.
