You asked—what do others think? Atlan could benefit from more feedback from forum users.
Thanks for Demo firmware 0.26u6,

which supports up to 8 reference

capture signals over two input channels on the 1013D. In my opinion, 8 is excessive for a simple measurement tool 1013D. unless each reference can be moved vertically—otherwise, it becomes cluttered. If you need 8 references with X & Y movement, consider another Oscilloscope .
For naming, simple labels like R1, R2, R3, R4 etc. would be sufficient. Personally, 3 to 6 reference signals (3 x Per Channel) across two input channels is ideal. (References colours look good to me —the lighter, the better.)

Hope this helps....
The reference-based icon measurements are very useful—please keep this feature. If Y-axis movement is added, it would be a major improvement.
