Double "show desktop" quits Finder (and clears Bunch list)

[Wildphinn]

If:

• You have a Bunch which asks to « show desktop » on close, and also calls another Bunch
• And that Bunch also shows the desktop

It seems that the double call kills the Finder without restarting it, but more importantly, Bunch loses it bunches list in its menu. It’s solved by a manual opening of Finder and a manual list refresh. And of course, by taking care to not call show desktop twice.

So I've had some issues with Finder not relaunching even when there's only one show/hide desktop command. I currently have it attempting to launch it twice just to be sure. I imagine that two commands in quick succession is only exascerbating that issue, will have to look into a more reliable way to relaunch. I have no idea why it would cause the Bunch menu to empty out, though, that may actually be a separate issue. Do you have a pair of Bunches that does this reliably that I could test with?

From what I've seen It would seem that the Finder being force quit leads to Bunch losing its files – that's the only way I've been able to repro the problem reliably. I don't have Bunches that reliably lead to that issue in other circumstances, but I will monitor this closely and send you something if I can.
