Further Information

iD shows the name field prominently. However, if one were to add noname=yes, the name field display remains exactly the same. A user who doesn't check or have tags expanded would presume the name is missing, even though it may actually have been verified that the feature does not have a name. For example, official street names versus what someone might assume is the street layout without consulting sources.

I assume iD doesn't want all the new users to start adding noname=yes to everything, so I propose to show a "no name" checkbox under the name field if and only if the noname=yes is set and then disable/gray out the name field.

The name field could be automatically hidden by using a prerequisiteTag. There are only a few (rare) corner cases of when a feature is tagged with noname=no and no name (here's an example: https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/8859106172 where the mapper indicated that the feature does have a name, but they don't know it). There are currently less than 100 such cases in OSM. Properly handling these would require extending the tagging schema to support more complex prerequisite tag handling (see ideditor/schema-builder#137 for that). An alternative option would be to hardcode this in iD for now…
