the chrome-argument addresses the problem completely: you have a window
completely covering all of the available space. any event on any poin
there is handled by the app covering that area. let it be chrome,
nautilus or wine (which creates a "virtual desktop" and thus spanning
the whole area): the app covering that area receives the events. if you
as the user spawn apps which spawn the whole area: what can fluxbox do
about it? maximize a regular xterm, put it onto the bottom-layer and the
same effect you have with nautilus happens: your clicks are handled by
xterm, not fluxbox. if you want to fluxbox' root-menu to popup anywhere
you click: bind the RootMenu action to whatever key-mouse-combo you like
the most which is not handled by any app that might run at the position
you trigger the event.

if you "quit nautilus" and still have nautilus running and covering that
area you have not quitted it correctly or completely, it's just that
easy.  and thus your counter-argument against the chrome-argument is
just that: incomplete.
