Title:
  All Settings button on main screen is useless

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Released
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When System Settings is in overview mode, showing all of the available
  panels, the All Settings button is present but nothing happens when
  it's clicked. A button that does nothing when clicked is frustrating
  and it's a very prominent button.

  I'd like to propose that we hide the All Settings button when in the
  overview mode, which is what upstream does.

  Another useless button is the current panel name. As in the Appearance
  button in All Settings>Appearance. This might be improved by showing
  the button pressed in like Nautilus does.

  The more I think about it, the more I think GNOME 3.4's symbolic view
  grid button does pretty good at conveying the same information in far
  less space, especially as there are only 2 levels in the hierarchy
  (the overview and the individual panel view).

  See bug 933482 where System Setting's breadcrumb design was proposed.

  Replace the "All settings" button with a breadcrumb as detailed in the
