Redaction comment quick selection

Having to type similar comments while redacting is very tiresome.

It would be useful to have some presets to quickly click/choose from:

TPD: Third party personal data

NPD: Not the requester’s personal data

SEC: Security-sensitive information

LPP: Legal professional privilege

CON: Confidential information

OOS: Out of scope

DUP: Duplicate already provided

This would speed up the redaction process considerably, and keep things consistent across files.

It would be great if you could quickly add your own redaction reasons as well?

    Shipped. Reasons are now a list you pick from — one click or a keystroke — rather than free text you retype each time.

    They're stored as codes rather than sentences, so they group properly in the Schedule of Redactions and there's a dedicated Reason column in the redaction log CSV. You can still add a free-text note alongside the code, and editing that note no longer strips the code off.
