Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  The label on the show desktop / show windows icon in the Unity
  Switcher does not change even when the function of the button has
  changed.  This can be just a little bit confusing.

  [ Test Case ]

  (1) Open several applications with windows.
  (2) Using Alt-Tab, bring up the Switcher and keeping the Alt key depressed and using the Tab key, navigate to the leftmost icon, which should be labeled "Show Desktop".  Release all keys.  Only the desktop should be displayed.
  (3) Again using Alt-Tab, navigate back to the leftmost icon.  Its label should have changed to "Restore Windows" to indicate its changed function.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  About the worst that could happen is the incorrect label is applied to
  the icon in the Switcher.

  [ Other Info ]

  The Ubuntu 14.04 LTS SRU has been cherry-picked from the Ubuntu 14.04
  release where it has shown to be stable.
