Got it. Yes, that text is now out of date. It never should have said that C-q SPC affects what is searched for, in any case. It should only have said (and can say now) that C-q SPC, as usual, appends a SPC char to the search string. What Isearch does with the text you put in the search string is another matter. But C-q SPC still works - it does what it is supposed to do. It is Isearch that is more complicated now, and not necessarily intuitive. But that cannot be blamed on C-q. ;-)
