Brownie: Your right, the hydraulic temperature gauge requires a particular screen with a hole in the cap for installing the sensor. The remote valve stuck in forward as you describe will heat up the oil quite quickly. Same thing can happen if the touch control levers are not metering with the rockshafts. If one gets a lever out of adjustment, and rockshaft reaches end of travel, yet lever is adjusted so it hasn't reached end of travel it creates demand on the system, thus you get heat very quickly.
Those two situations can be heard by an experienced operator. It may be a good reason for a novice to have the heat gauge.
The Hydra Creeper on the other hand, makes it necessary for the gauge as one is basically using a remote valve to operate a hydraulic motor, which in turn powers the tractor movement through PTO shaft and transmission. That option also requires a special release bearing as one is running with clutch pedal tied down.
