I am wondering whether per-user preferences should be confined to

        GNUmed > Preferences > UI interface

whereas maybe

        GNUmed > Preferences > List configuration
        GNUmed > Preferences > Database
        GNUmed > Preferences > Client parameters
        GNUmed > Preferences > External tools
        GNUmed > Preferences > EMR

should be praxis-level (if not already) and if so relocated (post 1.0) under

        GNUmed > Master data

where authorization should require to supply the password for gm-dbo?

??

Would the above be orthogonal to workplace settings and configs, or do these 
overlap (or can such configs over-ride what is in the backend) ?
