[MC-123804] Explorer map and Ominous banner names appear in item frames, draw in italics, and can be removed with an anvil

The bug

An explorer map (woodland mansion, ocean monument, or buried treasure) has its name appear in italics and displays when hovered over in an item frame. This is inconsistent with every other vanilla item in the game. See the attached screenshot.

Consider potions, which share many properties of these maps. Potions:

All use the same ID
Color their texture depending on their type
Use a different translation depending on type without relying on a custom display.Name tag

They ought to just add LocName back. It's so much better than using a translation string with italic set to false, as you can rename it back to the original name in an anvil, and it doesn't show in italics. It was a great tool for custom datapacks, and I'm sad to see it go. =(

This also affect the ominous banner, which relies on display tag and shows its name in italics

Can confirm in 20w51a.

This is sort of not possible to fix without one of the options:

Adding an "italics":false to these item's display.Name, and adding a special NBT tag to items to prevent item names from showing in frames (display.ShowNameFramed?)
Add another item type for these items, which is backwards incompatible.

Can confirm in 1.18.1.

This can be resolved by re-introducing LocName.

migrated 2022-01-19T09:51:56Z

A "default name" tag, with the same formatting as Name would be better though. (LocName didn't allow formatting, coloring, inserting variables (with) or appending (extra))
