Takes the property of a brick wall, but when you touch it (from all directions) it will read out the desired text.

Well, this would have almost the same effect as a wall surrounded by scrolls, but that's inelegant and will interfere with snakes, so I'm supporting the sign suggestion.

On the other hand, what need would signposts meet? If it were trivial to implement this and didn't add to code complexity (and hence maintainability), I'd probably say "sure, why not," but when it comes down to human resource being used for this or some other feature, I feel more justification is warranted.

(Actually, come to think of it, I would probably need more justification anyway before I could get behind introducing an element that is largely redundant and would mostly just be one more thing for the player to learn when solving puzzles.)
