Text Block size is currently limited to 4 "Pixels", creating unnecessary space when wanting to place short text. For example, labeling your input or output belts. The best current workaround is using 2 small note blocks for numbers < 100, or 3 for >100.

Possible solutions (in order of personal preference):

1. Default rate billboards (15,30,60,120,240) that can set these count identifiers in much prettier ways (the billboard with a small choice UI after placement, like the note block functionality, would be amazing, and also for additional visual options as well).
2. Sizable note blocks (either multiple choices, or the singular one with drag size functionality to keep the selection window at a minimum) would be super helpful. Text would auto scale in the same way it does today.

In addition, the current text and icon blocks seem to always default to south facing (assuming the static map is cardinal directions, and up arrow matches north when properly aligned). It'd be great if they defaulted to your current orientation; if not, then north facing may be more preferred. Things like billboards and banners seem to auto adjust to your current orientation (though both of these default looking to your current right, instead of toward you/down), so I assume the functionality already exists.

(Picture shows both the size limitation problem with examples, and the default orientation).
