Title:
  [regression] Unity show desktop fade out makes them invisible in
  spread.

Status in Unity:
  In Progress
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This looks like a regression.  Bug 877778 describes what we now have
  in current trunk again.

  STR:

  1. Open 2 application windows, e.g. gnome-terminal
  2. Alt-tab to show desktop
  3. Click  on gnome-terminal icon with 2 pips on the launcher

  Expected results:
  Two windows are displayed in spread.

  Actual results:
  One window is displayed in spread with another one still being there, the outline appears on hover but the window itself is not displayed.

  ADDITION: 

  Furthermore "Show desktop" shows desktop on all workspaces which is not desired behavior. This makes the issue even worse, because you can only use the launcher and alt-tab to navigate between the windows which results in a big usability bug.
