System Information
Operating system: Linux-5.4.0-81-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.31 64 Bits
Graphics card: GeForce 9800 GT/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 3.3.0 NVIDIA 340.108

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.0.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2021-08-18 20:22, hash: a217e043be
Worked: Unsure

Short description of error
When mouse cursor is hovering over the invisible (i.e. with no markers) marker region, the delete hotkey presses meant for a selected strip on the timeline will be inhibited.

While this is somewhat related to the various issues associated with an active sequencer marker area:
https://developer.blender.org/T57976
https://developer.blender.org/T90814
... it is different in that the user has no visual signs to suggest this would happen.

Easiest fix would just be make the visual shading of the marker area always on...
Long-term, I guess this problem might be naturally solved when the other issues with the marker area are sorted out.

Note: this occurs even when the delete strip and delete marker hotkey aren't identical (i.e. "x").

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

There is also added issue of right click menu delete not working on markers when called from the marker region (using 'x' works then, when markers are present to delete markers).
