I thought about it, but we have already:

  -f, --force                don't exit on tgtadm errors

And I couldn't come up with a better name than "force" ;)

Since tgt-admin still changes a lot, perhaps it would be better to rename the current "--force" into something like "--ignore-errors".

And from then on use "--force" to force some potentially dangerous operations, like force-deleting targets.
