Nautilus 3.5.5 When you click on the gearbox in the far right corner of the window, the menu that appear is created outside of the main window. It should open over the main window like it does in Chromium browser. I have attached the two screenshots.

In git master, we now set GTK_ALIGN_END on that menu, which should be enough according to GTK to make it align as you suggest. There still seems to be a buggy behavior in GTK though - I filed bug 681520 against GTK for that.
