I think there aren't, for Arevimishe reasons. A hekhsher can't split the
lines to fine, or it becomes unusable. Once it's certifying a product
as lacking qitniyos, it might as well stick to avoiding all qitniyos
rather than having a confusing (to some) explanation on each package
which minhagim can or can't use the product.

The hekhsher system creates least-common-denominator norms like that
in a number of ways.

Tir'u baTov!
