Title:
  Hidden controls due missing hardware showed on system settings
  relaunch

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  It seems here is a way to add a battery or a touchpad to your non-laptop system :) 
  Basically System Settings window adds hidden controls (for instance touchpad or battery or just the Search entry in toolbar) if you relaunch it when it's already running. The proper behavior should be raise the window, instead. Here is a video showing the issue:  http://ubuntuone.com/6tERKDklQhZo0xvSlklW08

  ## Steps to Reproduce ##
  Let assume you are on a system without a touchpad
   - launch System Settings and open Mouse and Touchpad 
   - give focus to another window, keeping system setting running and showing mouse settings
   - relaunch System Settings 

  ## Current result ##
  hidden Touchpad tab appears, as well as the search entry (this one should be available only in overview mode)

  ## Expected Result ##
  raise system settings window

  ## Additional Notes ##
  It seems the combobox available in Appearance > Background to change the background style (fill, tile, stretch...) is now hidden. Is it a bug, isn't it?
