I completely agree. The only way I could work out if it was reflecting
the current state or the state that would be set by pressing the
button, was when I realised that only the "Disable" buttons had
"Settings" next to them. If people have to look for other clues to the
meaning of a button (especially when the confusion is between two
complete opposites) something has gone awry with the interface design.

Either pulldown or checkbox is fine by me, but either would be a big
improvement on the current layout.
