By going to the desktop settings (long tap, settings, desktop) then system bars, you would be able to change both the status bar color to transparent (so that the wallpaper is shown) and even enable the overlap so that the desktop itself can be seen behind it.
Is this not working?

When tapping outside both the close event and the tap event of whatever you clicked are fired. You can test this by clicking any other icon instead.
In your case the folder is closed and then opened again (because you tapped it).
