I suggest adding a new "Nether Sign" craftable with netherbrick blocks and a blaze rod. It would have the dark netherbrick color, except whatever letters you write would be glowing red-yellow.
The sign would behave exactly like a wooden sign except it would emit light level 4, too little to be an effective light source, but enough that its letters are legible even in perfect darkness.
It would be perfect for leaving messages in dark places, or if you want to give a build a mystical vibe.
In more modern builds it might also fill the role of neon lights or computer screens, and people could always retexture it to look more technological and less supernatural, while keeping the glow.

well if you're goin with that approach, you might as well make the texts dyable.
I can also see neon signs being made with glass and redst... no, wait, glowstone!
Full support. But make it something else, not "Nether Sign". It seems like a cheap ripoff of the wood sign. Maybe "Nether Board"?

Why Minecraft mobs should NEVER have multiple attacks:
- No other PC mobs do. - Mob behaviour is intended to be simple.
Why you should NOT name new "special ability" weapons as "XXX Swords":
- No other swords have special abilities. - Make a new kind of weapon.
