Yes, I figured nearly as much, even in my setup (where I don't show fringe).
FWIW, in Emacs 19 there was such a no-man's land underneath each scroll
bar (everywhere, not minibuffer frame). And I used that "feature" by
binding keys there. I was disappointed when this "feature" was removed. ;-)
This is the code I used for that:
;;; ;; These [nil] bindings are no doubt a HACK, based on an
;;; ;; undocumented handy "feature". (This works in Emacs 19.34.6,
;;; ;; but it doesn't work in Emacs 20.6.) In Windows, at least,
;;; ;; such a key sequence [nil...] occurs if you click in the
;;; ;; lower right corner, between the scroll bar and the mode-line.
;;; ;;
;;; (global-set-key [nil down-mouse-1] 'fit-frame)
;;; (global-set-key [nil mouse-1] 'ignore)
;;; (global-set-key [nil C-down-mouse-1] 'show-hide)
;;; (global-set-key [nil C-mouse-1] 'ignore)
;;; (global-set-key [nil S-down-mouse-1] 'iconify-everything)
;;; (global-set-key [nil S-mouse-1] 'ignore)
I had a hunch that this <nil> was akin to the nil in that feature.

Thank you.
