Description

WordPress currently provides functions for setting and retrieving taxonomy terms for a post, but there is no support for removing taxonomy terms. Currently, developers must:

  1. Get an array of terms for an object
  2. Remove selected terms from the array
  3. Overwrite the object's terms using wp_set_object_terms()

This process is somewhat standard, and not too difficult to manage. But most other functions in core come in a get/set/delete set, and this should be no exception.

wp_remove_object_terms() should accept similar parameters as wp_set_object_terms().

Methinks you're right. Sadly, that one didn't turn up in my search when I looked first time 'round.
