Description Caius 'kaio' Chance 2011-05-01 17:41:56 UTC 
I have just discovered 'hide all windows' on Fedora 15 beta has no keyboard shortcuts associated.

I suggest to have it associated to 'Super + D' by default. Though this is also the default key combo as Windows series, this compatibility may reduces UX gap for Windows users.

Since we don't have a story for how a user can find his minimized windows again, we decided to not have default key bindings for minimize and 'show desktop'.

It can be a somewhat terrifying experience if you hit 'show desktop' by accident and all your windows are gone without a hint...
