"Import taxonomies (safely)" broken

I have tried to update the definitions of a middle-size taxonomy by exporting it from a test site and importing it to a production site. This fails in several ways:

1. Taxonomy term names aren't updated
2. Taxonomy term definitions aren't updated
3. Relations aren't updated
4. The terms that were removed from the taxonomy on a test site weren't removed on the production site.

The only think that did work was importing new terms. Maybe I misunderstood what "safe" means. I thought that it means that taxonomy terms will be updated but that the existing content that is tagged by these terms will not lose the relation.

By the way, what is the difference between "full" and "force"?
