I don't think the electricity grid should be in front of the map markers.


A button to disable all markers would be good too. (Just think about someone spamming them in multiplayer)

Why not?
You want to investigate were you miss electric pole, so you enabled the electric network overlay and don't want it to be obscured by anything. When you fix the problem you turn it off again because it hides other things on minimap.

Button to hide markers will be probably added in 0.16.

When markers in multiplayer become a problem, you can give permission to create them only to players you trust.

I want to have the electric grid overlay enabled all the time and then its annoying that the markers are obscured.
It makes the map alot more useful to have it enabled.
