No, arrowing around doesn't deselect everything. If you reach the end in one direction, your selection remains on the item you last selected. While I've not found a way to deselect everything, I have found a way to bring up the folder's context menu rather than the one of the selected file. Press ctrl+f10 rather than shift+f10. This will bring up the menu you're looking for without having to alter your selections. I.e. on the desktop, this menu contains "create folder," "create launcher," etc. In a typical nautilus window, this menu will contain "create folder," "create document," "zoom in," etc. In other words, it's the same menu you'd get when bringing up a context menu with nothing selected.
