For some reason, when I create new update packages (release build in VS), the update packages are not removing old items. Where I've noticed this specifically is with templates.



Example:
Before updates:

Email Form (template) has an "Email Validation" group containing a field called "Banned Domains" which is a csv list of email domains to not accept submissions from and some other fields.



I decided to move this field to a central setting so that you didn't have to config/update each form separately so...
After updates:

Email Form (template) has an "Email Validation" group containing everything but that list of "Banned Domains".



After building using the release config, I take the resulting update package and apply it, but it doesn't remove the "Banned Domains" field from the template on the applied server as I expected. I have to manually remove it.



What might I be doing wrong? Is there a config for TDS I need to tweak?
I'm a newbie with TDS. I inherited it from the company that setup our enviro, so please forgive me if this is a "stupid" question.

            We have seen this specific issue crop up, but only in the templates section. There is some limitation related to the templates area specifically where Sitecore does not respect the KeepAllChildrenSynchronized setting when applying changes.



            To resolve this for templates, we had to add a step to our deployment process where we deleted all of our (custom) templates before installing the .update package. The only way we could do this (with so many items using those templates) was using dbbrowser.aspx:
