Could you possibly add an option to the restore sql database taskthat mimics the 'Preserve the replication settings' dialog checkbox.
This simply adds the keyword 'KEEP\_REPLICATION' to the restore command.

Hi Mark
I have implemented this in the following build. The option ’ Preserve replication settings’ is now available on the Database tab of the SQL Server Restore Database action.
