NP0-  have temperature stable dielectrics which exhibits
very little capacitance change with temperature
NP0=  0 ppm/degree Centigrade
page 23, 25 
Data Book for Homebrewers and QRPers by Paul
Harden
--by the way, this book has  NP  ZERO ** NP0**   not
NP  letter O,  or  NPO...
I think the 10 pF NP0 will give a greater spread for the
trimmer and make it less "touchy", which was the
idea in the original post.   Since the temperature coefficient
is 0 parts per million/C degrees,  what's the problem?
I just bought 10 of the ceramic caps and I'll let you know.
