I do believe this should have been a --justdb flag.
Still, if there is still a package owning these files installed
after the removal the files ought to stay.
Exactly, this used to work fine with previous versions (FC-5) of rpm, 
ectually you do not want to use --justdb, because if files were removed 
/ renamed fomr one version-release to the other you would ned up with 
stale unowned files.
I'm using rawhide for a long time and as such often have yum breakage 
causing this kinda dual version installs and have been using rpm -e 
old-version without --justdb hapily to fix this for a long time.
Also as reported earlier the same thing happens when removing one arch 
of a multi-arch package.
