I've used MC for small projects, but never used configurations. Did they even exist in 3.8? This is the first I've heard about them.
MCC's were originally developed and used in Tweak (which is 3.8-based).
Since I've used Envy and Store, it is pretty easy to guess what they are for. But it would be nice to have a little documentation. I found some e-mail and blog posts discussing MC configurations, but no real documentation.
The closest to documentation is probably here: http://tweak.impara.de/ABOUT/FAQ/#Q4A http://tweak.impara.de/ABOUT/FAQ/MCConfigurationUpdates/
3.9 comes with a MC Configuration editor, so I am guessing that configurations are fairly new. It would be hard to figure it out by trial and error. The 3,9 MC user interface is wretched. It is much harder to figure out than the old interface. The MC user interface in 3,7 and 3.8 was not great, but not bad. The UI in 3.9 is not only ugly, it is confusing. I gave up on it.
I haven't looked closely at 3.9 but is there even a significant difference between the UI in 3.8 and 3.9?
