      There are some block displays which are invisible. For example,

      /summon block_display ~ ~ ~ {block_state:{Name:"minecraft:end_gateway"}}

      does not work. 

       

      Here is the list of invisible or partially invisible block displays:

      -Signs

      -Banners

      -Moving piston

      -Enchanting table (table displays but book doesn't)

      -End portal blocks

      -End gateway blocks

      -Mob heads

      -Bells (the bell frame displays but the yellow bell part doesn't)

      -Decorated pots

       

      They are all block entities, but not all block entities appear invisible. I have tested every block entity and these are the only ones that are invisible/partially invisible.

      Allowing users to display end gateway blocks would allow them to create custom portals for datapacks using block displays in a way that is lag-friendly, user-friendly (no armor stands), and visually appealing. I can think of many other uses for the other block entities shown here, if they were visible.

      That said, portal blocks are invisible when put on an armor stand as well.

      (No image attached because there is nothing to show.)
