Usually separate labelling where I'm from.

You can advertise your product as "gluten free" if it doesn't contain any ingredients containing gluten, but will have a separate disclaimer which looks something like "processed in a factory also handling nuts, gluten, and dairy products" as applicable.

I'm not sure if this is mandatory or voluntary labelling here, but in my opinion it satisfies the need for truly allergic people to choose products not even made on the same premises as their allergens, while avoiding perverse labelling such as the parent poster's "gluten free beans".
