[ shrug... ]  If you have near-term solutions for all the *other*
problems that would be involved (like what XID to put into rows you
insert in the temp tables) then I might think that what you're asking
Robert to do is reasonable.  Personally I think non-read-only HS is
entirely pie in the sky, and therefore it's not reasonable to saddle
unrelated development tasks with an expectation that they should work
with a behavior that probably won't ever happen.
