No, just an empty directory tmp in the root of your current drive (eg. C:\tmp)
- without it creating a file /tmp/mmqgis.qml won't work.

/tmp is the standard directory for temporary files on Unix.  So this is just an
ugly workaround.  The plugin should create the temporary file in a portable way
(e.g. with Qt's QTemporaryFile or Python's tempfile).
