I think that would make a lot of sense from a usability perspective, or
grey out related options (reference, value) when set.

"Footprint Text" off turns off all footprint text, including

This only turns it off when viewing the board, correct? It will still
be included in the plot output if the actual text is marked "Show" in
the dialog.
We could have the Footprint Text control act as a visual override
for the Values and References controls to make this more clear...
Can we link these controls so that changing the "Footprint Text"
visibility changes the "references" and "values" visibility, but those
two can still be changed separately? (e.g. to allow showing only the
references text from footprints).

I am working on a PCB with PCBNew from a couple days ago.
I can't see the references. Silkscreen is on and the little
eye is open but the references don't show up.
If I edit a reference it is on the right layer and show is
clicked.
What am I doing wrong?
