How about a different solution...I think the app-specific configuration menu 
item is the most important one. So IMHO it should be separated with line from 
the other configure items and it should be always the last item in the 
settings menu. 

I think this way we gain consistency between the apps and the menu item should 
then be fairly easy to find.

What do you think?
