Yepp... if the parent relates to unsaved (new) child records there will
be an entry on $this->remapStack in TCEmain. This stack will be
processed if all children have been saved and afterwards the parent
record gets updated by calling t3lib_TCEmain::updateDB(). Unfortunatelly
this method doesn't have any hooks.
A dirty workaround could be to use any of the processDatamap_* hooks to
revert the entry for the parent table on $this->remapStack.

Using processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations might no be a good idea,
but give it a try. There is pending bugfix for this hook - have a look:

So go ahead with a feature request for DBAL in bugtracker if you'd like
to see this one day... ;-)
