I would prefer if this was actually called --force, for reasons 
explained in the design thread: 
<https://www.redhat.com/archives/freeipa-devel/2016-April/msg00010.html>.

So, this is actually the all-powerful --force option we always try to 
avoid, but with a different name (and not very good one - if you are 
removing something, what other than removal would you need to force?).

Could you split this into separate options?
