I understand your request, but we are not happy with setting
auto-remove to false. The reason is that *normally* packages
are not removed, and removals are actually either renames,
up superseeds. So disabling autor-remove will make it in
*most* cases much worse for the users.

I agree that it is not optimal, and maybe one *could* think about
a way to distinguish these changes, but nothing the current
infrastructur can handle, unfortunately.
