I've recently changed the way I tag people in photos so that they include the
full name, but when I try to write the data back to the photos, the old tags
are still in the IPTC and XMP metadata and there doesn't seem to be any way of
removing it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Rename/move a tag and then use Tools > write metadata to all images.

Actual Results:  
Old tags are still visible in the images.

Expected Results:  
Any tags not required anymore should be removed.
