the difference of phpinfo() with the other settings below is, that this should depend on if the user is 'superuser' on the 'localhost'!

if i have a local PMA installation to manage localhost(user:root), intra.myweb.de(user:web) and www.myweb.de(user:web) - phpinfo() is hidden only if i select one of the two external servers - but without any reason

There is no relation on being superuser in mysql and beeing able to have information about webserver. I'd leave this only on config option.

So my suggestion: Drop $cfg['ShowMysqlInfo'] and $cfg['ShowMysqlVars'] and show them in all cases. Drop $is_superuser condition from showing php info.
