Yes, for this change:
"10.4: Value is filled with footprint name, has a height of 1mm and is placed on the Eco1.User"

Value can be put only on a paired layer (currently only Fab or Silk for a text) like any graphic
item of a footprint in a footprint library.
ECO1 layer is not paired with ECO2 layer.

It means all flipped footprints will have a broken value text if on ECO1 layer.

The "old" 10.4 rule is the only one possible option.
