This just gets better...

[root@spirit ~]# rpm -e kdemultimedia-3.4.91-1.i386

So far so good. No complaints from rpm and the disk drive made noise. Now, I 
wonder if it left the 64 bit apps alone?

[root@spirit ~]# rpm -qV kdemultimedia-3.4.91-1.x86_64

Nope. It ate the files from both packages. I don't think this is working quite 
right. It seems that it had the smarts to overcome file conflicts when 
installing the packages.

[root@spirit ~]# file /usr/bin/kmid
/usr/bin/kmid: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for 
GNU/Linux 2.4.20, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

So, isn't it reasonable to assume it can handle conflicts at uninstall? It 
should look at the file being removed and see if another package is also 
claiming that file. If the checksum of the file matches the one in the 
package being uninstalled, remove the file. Otherwise leave it alone.
