No I didn't. So it was a good test, how clear the term is ;-) I thought,
it would give me the minimal options usefull for editing...
How usefull is it to have a rte configuration without the link button?

Sometimes I would like to (but without the italic button)...

Thats a matter of naming style. "All options" just says what it is - all
editing options. Administrators should decide for themselves wheather
this is what they want for their editors.
"demo" could mean a lot of things - maybe a configuration where it is
impossible to save anything...
IMO the best label is what gives people the best hint what will happen
if they choose it (this is true for confugartion options, buttons and
links on webpages).
If we think, nobody should use this setting, we shouldnt offer it at all.
Is it planned to include the text in brackets? So we could add a little
explanation:
- Minimal (...)
[with only 5 buttons I dont see any use of this setting at all...]
- Typical (for most production uses)
- All Options (demo - not for production)
