Can there be a preference to not force things by default? 

In some cases, removals – for which there's no forewarning – might be
troublesome. 

<https://github.com/aarnt/octopkg/issues/3#issuecomment-183935274> it's
possible to cancel an in-progress transaction, but avoidance will be
preferable. 

Thanks
