The issue still persists if Chrome window is not occupying entire screen space (e.g. if it is tiled alongside another or was floated and resized). If the Chrome window occupies the entire screen space then the issue is not triggered. The issue is also not triggered if I run xmobar, but use win+B to toggle struts off (thus Chrome again occupies the entire screen space).
Xmobar not lowering itself and Chrome expecting to be given the full screen rectangle when being full-screened seem like orthogonal issues. In fact, the latter is a known and thing and there is a workaround in current HEAD in the form of X.U.Hacks.windowedFullscreenFixEventHook[1].
