Hi Dac,

For this particular bug, Ayatana Design added feedback in the bug
description under "Desired solution" for how they want Show Desktop to
work.  Since your latest comment in more about the wording, I think you
should enter a new bug and then we can ask Ayatana Design for their
feedback.

Thanks!

  ----------------------
  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.
