I did not realize until now that menu items, despite their absence of tooltips, 
are informed by equivalent functionality in what is shown in GNumed's "status 
bar" at bottom left.

This menu does more than to just "Show" (granted it does not allow to create, 
but it does allow to delete).

I agree Show is better than List but mainly I am looking to capture how this 
particular group of "configurations" is different from what, to any regular 
user, may seem to be other things that could be called "configurations" such as 
client parameters and UI and External tools preferences etc.

If it simply that what is currently in

        Show configuration

was not supported to be changed under the other headings, then how about 
calling it

        Other configurations

and positioning it bottom-most under

        Client parameters
        User interface preferences
        EMR preferences
        External tools preferences
        Other configurations
