The latest coreutils.git now states:

$ mktemp --help | head -n4
Usage: src/mktemp [OPTION]... [TEMPLATE]
Create a temporary file or directory, safely, and print its name.
TEMPLATE must contain at least 3 consecutive `X's in last component.
If TEMPLATE is not specified, use tmp.XXXXXXXXXX, and --tmpdir is implied.

and you can now do suffixes:

$ mktemp -u XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.pdf
abAdqJ3pa1GbyWxTd.pdf

Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
