I think he means more like:

create temporary table temp_test(id int, fld_1 varchar);
create temporary index on permanent_table (fld_1);

select something from temp_test join permanent_table using (fld_1) where a=b;
select something_else from temp_test join permanent_table using (fld_1) where 
c=d;

Yes. That's exactly what I mean:  A "temporary index" on a "permanent table" , which 
expires in the same manner of a "temporary table".

I misunderstood then. The only thing I can think of is to wrap in a transaction, though that presents other issues with open transactions and/or errors in the transaction.
