[PATCH 1/3] Use different labels for wash buttons when text is visible or hidden.

Before the change, citation and signature wash buttons used the
same label in both visible and hidden states.  Sometimes it is
very convenient when you can determine if the text is hidden or
shown without reading the context and/or clicking the button.
The patch makes it easy to see if the text is shown or hidden by
explicitly saying what the button does (shows or hides the text).
