Possible to add Show Desktop option to Switchboard->Desktop->Hot Corners?

Asked by G.Scoppino

I am one of those individuals who revels in shortcuts to everything I can do, and one of my favorites from when I was using other desktop environments was to assign a key or hotcorner to minimize all current windows and show the desktop. When you've got like 7 terminals open and two web browsers with a dozen tabs, sometimes you need a quick way to get all the clutter out of the way in order to start something new!

Thanks for all your hard work guys!

1. Use the custom command option and specify: show-desktop as the command
2. Switch to a new workspace.

It's a good suggestion to be included by default as well! Thanks for the help!
