When I specifically add two spaces to my search string, it usually means
that, at that point, I want at least two spaces. If I compare to the
similar feature of case folding, that one is deactivated when there is
an explicit capital letter in the search string. OTOH, the cases where I
actually want to match multiple spaces are rare enough.
