  We all got together and agreed to change this HIG on this to reflect the fact that "Configure" is an action verb, and that configuring something always requires user intervention and has a definite end. As such, an ellipsis is appropriate. See https://hig.kde.org/style/writing/labels.html#using-ellipses-in-labels
