0. emacs -Q
1. Sanity check: Typing e.g. `C-h f url- SPC' should pop up a
*Completions* buffer showing functions beginning with "url-", since
SPC in the minibuffer is bound to minibuffer-complete-word.
2. C-g to exit the minibuffer, then, if you have no files made by
todo-mode (i.e. no directory ~/.emacs.d/todo), type `M-x todo-show
RET RET RET RET RET' (accepting defaults) to create a todo file with
a category and an entry.
3. Type `q' to quit todo-mode (optional) and redo step 1.
=> Upon typing SPC this time, instead of getting the *Completions*
buffer, a space is inserted in the minibuffer after "url-".
If at step 2 you already have one or more todo-files, then invoking a
number of todo-mode commands, e.g. `j' to jump to another category or
`C a' to add a new category, will likewise globally change the effect of
all subsequent uses of SPC in the minibuffer.
The patch below fixes this. I request approval to push this fix to
emacs-25, since without it, todo-mode-specific behavior changes the
minibuffer behavior in rest of Emacs. Also, the fix is certainly safe,
since it replaces naively implemented functionality by canonical code to
temporarily change a minibuffer key binding. (Since I normally don't
use SPC for minibuffer completion but just TAB, I only discovered this
bug yesterday, when I was trying and failed to reproduce bug#23670 in a
session in which I had already used the broken todo-mode function.)

Ping! Any objections to pushing this fix to emacs-25?

We've lived with this for the last 2 years, how come it's so urgent
now?

It's no more urgent now than it was two years ago, it's just that I only
discovered it now. And again, the bug not only affects todo-mode but
completion throughout Emacs. Admittedly, the intersection of those who
regularly use both todo-mode and minibuffer-complete-word is probably
very small (possibly empty), but still, why release with a known bug
when the fix is obvious and obviously safe? Or do you think it isn't?

OK, please go ahead and push to emacs-25.

Now closing the bug (forgot to when I pushed the fix).
