One possible approach to this is to have all org-persist related
temporary directories into an overall "$TMPDIR/org-persist" directory.
That is, assuming that the parent directory exists, we create
org-persist temporary directories as "$TMPDIR/org-persist/XXXXXX" and
everything else would remain the same.
The downside for this approach is that, since `make-tempfile' only makes
a mkdir() call in its underlying function try_dir() assuming the
existence of its parents [1, 2], we would probably have to create the
parent via `(mkdir DIR t)' before every `make-tempfile' call within
org-persist.
