Tim,

What really matters is the events gets recorded in the log,
so imo it can be either informational or a warning, as you think its better.

In this case, I would vote for informational.  Since I ship my product with
a catalog only, I really don't want the log filled with warnings right off
the top when it's not actually a warning.  Since it's not necessarily
something "wrong", it's just information for me to use at a later point.   I
also wouldn't want a whole bunch of warnings added to the log when I create
a temp table.

It actually went out as a warning because I forgot to check back in here
before the build, but I think it's actually a good thing since a) it's easy
to ignore the initial warnings, and b) due to the circular nature of the
log, these original warnings will eventually be overwritten with new logged
events.  So, as long as one always looks at the most recent logged events,
the warning should be okay.
