would be nice if when you select this feature, make a reference to the file currently does nothing if checked.

When you attach a file to a field, you can have these features when you see the node, or when lists with views. but when it references, these features do not work.

HELP PLEASE...

I think I have the same issue. File references do not display.

On admin/structure/types/manage/book/fields/field_file_reference/field-settings I choose a Target Type of "File". Then I create a page, choosing a file to reference, save, and no matter what I have selected for my (File) Entity Reference field on Manage Display, my rendered web page displays nothing for this field.

Here's some screens. I'm adding two Entity Reference fields to my content type. One is a File reference, one is a Node reference. The Node reference displays on the rendered page just fine, the File one does not display at all.
