I meant in Icicle mode. In Icicle mode, SPC is self-inserting, at least by
default (i.e., if you change no keybindings). When you turn Icicle mode off
(e.g. via `icy-mode'), the vanilla Emacs behavior of SPC is restored.

Not by default, but you can do that if you want. SPC is self-inserting in Icicle
mode, because there are lots of completions that contain space chars. Icicles
makes completion usable for lots of things that vanilla Emacs doesn't, and some
of them include space chars.

No problem. Once you learn the basic Icicles behavior, the rest follows. I can't
describe that basic behavior in the doc string of every command. (But the doc
string of `icicle-font' does describe how to act on individual candidates, and
it does say this:
"This is an Icicles command - see command `icicle-mode', and that leads you to
some of the basic behavior.
