well, when i say "show desktop" and select "copy" from the context menu 
of a folder-view and then "show desktop" get restored it is pretty clear 
how badly that change is

in fact "show desktop" is completly useles because whatever you reverts 
it instead - "oh man please minimize all my thousand windows and i chose 
the two i want to see for now"
