--------------------------+-----------------------------
 There is a bug in the XMLRPC API that causes API clients who use the
 terms_names field to set tags or other terms to be unable to completely
 remove tags from a post using this API.

 I'm attaching a patch that addresses the problem by ensuring that if there
 is an input entry for terms_names on a given taxonomy, that at least an
 empty array is established as the updated terms property for the updated
 post.

 I'll add a unit test update to this ticket soon.
