Yes, I thought about that and I found strange that an application
declares itself for both categories: either you are modifying the
settings or you are dealing with the system, not the two at the same
time.  Never mind, it seems we need to deal with it...

Nope, yours is the correct way to solve the problem.  I still prefer
"System Tools" over "Administration", but this is my personal taste and
I do not mind at all if the menu is working as expected ;-)
