Ehmmm, well, I knew that :)

I agree, but nevertheless you should keep in mind that it's rather
geek-like to have the config names displayed. "ordinary" users
(especially those running a non-english version) may be irritated quite
a bit! Switch to spanish and imagine you never ever saw that admin
interface before and pretend to NOT understand/speak engish... would you
  like it?

This is entirely a usability question. maybe I'm just making a mountain
out of a molehill. ;)
