Another one that is worth mentioning here --- which I discussed in the context of non-free.org with Dafydd Harries and others --- is introducing a debtags facet to capture the reason why a package is in non-free. At least two hierarchies come to mind: 1) which point of DFSG is not respected, and 2) which one of the 4 freedoms are not granted. I've had on my TODO list proposing the relevant debtags facets since at least 2 years, but never found the time to actually do that. This is a very actionable item: it is enough to follow the procedure for proposing a new debtags. (Procedure that I cannot find right now, but IIRC it includes coming up with a list of tag names + a list of at least N packages, with N relatively low, that are already in the archive and that would carry each tag.)
