Testing 13.10... Sorry, how is this fixed?

If I were to sit next to you at your computer, put my arm around your
shoulder and ask you: "Show me the Desktop"

What would you do? Load up a Firefox window? What if I asked you again
"Show me the Desktop"

Would you do something different than, say, show the desktop?

The same feature on Windows 7:  Click the "Show Desktop" button and all
windows are minimized to show the Desktop. (The thing with the wallpaper
on it) Click the button again twice? Still showing the Desktop.

What feature are you developing here?

You need to either

1) Show the Desktop and only the desktop, no matter the state.

Or:

2) Change the state from "Show Desktop" to "Show Windows," which hasn't
been done, so  not fixed.

Cheers.

  ----------------------
  Desired solution:

  - The first time a user selects the "Show desktop" option (either via
  the Launcher icon, keyboard shortcut or using ALT-TAB) all windows on
  all monitors on the currently visible workspace only should be
  minimised.

  - When the user selects the "Show desktop" option a second time *if
  the user has not opened any new windows or un-minimised any windows
  after selecting the "Show desktop" option the first time*, all the
  windows that were minimised the first time "Show desktop" option was
  selected should be restored back to their previous states.

   - When the user selects the "Show desktop" option a second time *if
  the user has opened any new windows and/or un-minimised any windows*
  all windows on all monitors on the currently visible workspace only
  should be minimised.
