Gotcha. One option is to add the user to the db_owner role in model but you
will have to remember to to remove it from new databases so that's probably
not that useful but you can create a startup proc to do it e.g.

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.usp_adddevtotempdb AS

exec tempdb..sp_grantdbaccess 'myuser','myuser'

exec tempdb..sp_addrolemember 'db_owner', 'myuser'

exec sp_procoption N'usp_adddevtotempdb ', N'startup', N'true'
GO
