From aleene:

it would be nice to know whether product information is lacking or does not exist on the packaging. Thus a controller would know if there is still work to do. A standard value such as "na" could indicate that the information is "not available" on the packaging.

We could look at some examples to see if we should differentiate "Not specified" and "Not applicable".

To facilitate data entry, maybe a clickable button to automatically add "Not specified" in the tag list.

In my opinion the 'n/a' with a button would be a simpler choice for most users
