The bug
The Creative GUI shows detailed information about how long potions last and how much damage weapons deal.
However, for the following items no detailed information is shown:
instant damage and instant health potions: Do not show min-max damage or recovered health
poison potion: Does not show damage per second amount
regeneration potion: Does not show regenerated health per second
bow: Does not show min-max damage it can deal

This is not a bug because speed shows the attribute effect. So all potions that do not have to do with an attribute do not have a tooltip.
Confirmed in version 1.7.2, however the effect is not a cause of the creative gui. Bows and Health/Damage/Regeneration/Fire Resistance/Posion/Night Vision/Water Breathing/Invisibility Potions generally don't show extra info at all.
Is this still a concern in the latest Minecraft version 13w48b? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
I have formatted the description to make the missing information more obvious.
However, it might be good to split out missing bow information into a separate report, because the damage information also highly depends on enchantments, draw time, ... which might make it more likely that this report as a whole is considered a feature request.
Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.
Note: this is a automatic message, so apologies if I miss something.
