Applying dye to a sign causes all text to disappear. This happens in at least two cases:
Applying colored dye to an unstyled sign
Applying a glow ink sac to a styled sign
Steps to reproduce case 1:
Create a sign containing some text.
Note that sign appears as expected.
Apply a dye to the sign.
Expected result, case 1:
The text appears dyed to the selected color.
Actual result, case 1:
The sign is blank, with no visible text. However, one can still apply a glow ink sac to it, consuming an ink sac with no visible result.

Steps to reproduce case 2:
Create a sign that includes styled text, for example,
Β§aGreen Text
Note that the sign appears as expected, with green text
Apply a glow ink sac to the sign.
Expected result, case 2:
The text now appears glowing (bright) green, with an outline
Actual result, case 2:
The sign is blank, with no visible text.Β
