Sorry to say: *you* are suggesting a change; it is on *you* to prove that
the change is good ;-)

How is a checkable menu entry that is not checked different from a menu
entry that is not checkable, hm? There is *no* difference.

Having a menu entry that does not show a checkbox and whose name is merely
"Toolbar" in a menu named "Settings" does absolutely *not* suggest that
choosing that entry will switch on the toolbar. It rather suggests that
this will allow toobar related settings.

Therefore, I strongly suggest to keep the word "Show" as long as the entry
is in a menu named "Settings".
