Have you done this successfully, including failure testing? If not then it
is not something you should recommend.
Recent comments on the lists indicate that mounting tablespaces on volatile
filesystems is not a valid configuration since the tablespace and its
contents must be present as server startup. You would never get a chance to
"create the table" since the server would not boot.
