There are no shadows on text displayed within entity names

The Bug:

There are no shadows on text displayed within entity names.

This is an issue because when the "Text Background Opacity" slider is set to "0%", the text can be quite difficult to read, so having a shadow displayed on all text within entity names would resolve this problem.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Navigate to your accessibility settings menu and set the "Text Background Opacity" slider to "0%" and the "Text Background" button to "Everywhere".

  2. Summon an entity with a name by using the command provided below.

    /summon minecraft:husk ~ ~ ~ {NoAI:1b,Silent:1b,CustomNameVisible:1b,CustomName:"{\"text\":\"MC-241520\"}"}
  3. Look closely at the text displayed within the entity's name.

  4. Take note as to whether or not there are any shadows on text displayed within entity names.

Observed Behavior:

There are no shadows on text displayed within entity names.

Expected Behavior:

There would be shadows on text displayed within entity names.
