15475,Proposed new function: wp_unset_object_terms,simonwheatley,markjaquith,"In order to remove a single term associated with an object, leaving it's other terms in the same taxonomy, you have to call ```wp_get_object_terms```, remove the terms you don't require from the array, then call ```wp_set_object_terms```. I propose a single function, ```wp_unset_object_terms```, which does this, applying relevant actions as it does.

Use case: A ""starring"" system whereby a user can (un)star a post to (un)favourite it. Each user has their own term where their stars are stored. You can use ```wp_set_object_terms``` with the ```append``` parameter (thanks for pointing that out Nacin) to ""star"" posts, but there's no simple way to ""unstar"" (and be sure that appropriate actions are run).

The attached patch adds the proposed function. Feedback, obviously, is welcome.",enhancement,closed,normal,3.6,Taxonomy,,normal,fixed,has-patch,trepmal@… jer@… wordpress@… max@… mikeschinkel@… ian_dunn@… ejdanderson@… kovshenin martrober@…
