Hello Joseph, I have to say that I'm not a fan of the tag, IMHO negation is something that will make harder to do searches... If the burger king is not the food chain keep the brand empty and write a note or do a Wikipedia page about it, probably an historical activity deserve it.
About the no name, this already exists: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:noname Can you please point out why adopt the new syntax instead?
