Unless I am mistaken the tmpfs contents of /tmp are not preserved over reboots?
in which case it would breach the Linux fhs
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/2.2/fhs-5.15.html 

"5.15 /var/tmp : Temporary files preserved between system reboots" although if
this would be a problem or not would be down to you.
