I made a few of variations to compare. I think B
works the best because
it doesn't look like you can do anything about it. I greyed the text out,
just like what happens to disabled buttons
<http://tools.wmflabs.org/styleguide/desktop/section-2.html>.
If A and C stood alone without the standard checkbox, they may not be as
clear that they're disabled. Is there a reason we're using lightgrey
instead of actual value?

I'm confident she will come up with something
sensible.
