Oops, that's a bug.... That is supposed to be the behavior for 2D text.

In the mean time, you can use:

draw text1 {3 4 5} "some text label" translucent 1

That is, create a point, label it with some text, and display it as 
"invisible". Then you can turn the text on and off using

draw text1 on
draw text1 off
