I think an icon that maps more to "show original version" vs. "exit/close/delete" might work better.

Assigning this to @mmaslaney to take on

For functional consistency, how do you feel about using the Reader View Icon, instead on an "X"? This would reframe it's function to be more of a toggle on and off, than an exit.

I was stumped by this so that works for me, perhaps with a different color than the red hover.

Metaphors that could work, if it's not just a un-book toggle:

- exit (like we use for hangup in hello)
- back
- a webpage (i.e. show me the web-page layout) - Pocket uses this: http://cl.ly/image/301j0j2R3J3R

Feels like we need to try a couple of ideas here and maybe get the opinion of some outsiders.  

Here are some ideas we came up with:
* Back (generic)
* Back (with an icon depicting a web page)
* Close Door
* Book with stroke through it
* Closed Book

Marking this as a dupe of bug 1149261 as it looks like the work is being done there.
