I'm sorry, but I disagree - this *is* a bug, it involves unexpected
behaviour when running an application. That's either a bug with Fluxbox,
the application, or the interaction between the two.

However, if the fix is to pass extra arguments to the Nautilus command,
perhaps a simple way to close this bug would be to patch the file:
/etc/X11/fluxbox/fluxbox-menu, or the script which generates it? If that
was done, users would never come across the bug, which is a much better
experience than being pointed to a site where the solution is 'run the
nautilus command manually with some arguments, create a shell script or
patch Nautilus', none of which are particularly helpful to a new user.

I'm happy to submit a patch which does this, although it might take me a
week or two to work through the necessary bits of Fluxbox.

(As an aside, the Chrome argument doesn't really address this problem,
as I can leave Chrome in full screen mode and get back to the desktop as
it was. I cannot do that by quitting Nautilus, unless I run 'killall
nautilus', and even then the background image does not return to
normal.)
