Title:
  The modal behavior of "Show Desktop" is confusing

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Triaged
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: compiz

  Try this:

  Open two windows
  Hit "show desktop" in the bottom left
  Restore one of the windows

  Notice how the show desktop state remains "on". This differs from
  Metacity's behaviour and causes something unexpected when it is hit
  again.

  At this stage you have one window open. From Metacity's behaviour, you
  would expect that the Desktop is now "inactive", much like a window
  would be if it was minimised. Clicking the button, therefore, would
  cause the Desktop to show again, and hide all open windows. It
  doesn't. It restores the windows that were hidden previously.

  If we're going to have Compiz and Metacity doing bling and non-bling,
  their behaviours with small stuff like this should be consistent.
