I would rather like ? to stay where it is as it is also used in many other similar functions in Emacs and it breaks habits of those who seek for help at usual key. (setq collection '("Did he say?" "Did he say so?")) (completing-read "Choice: " collection) I understand that above completion is not easy. But those users who need question mark or SPC they can always use C-q ? or C-q SPC as that is built-in and exists and those users will (I guess) know it. If that fact is missing in the Manual, then it should be added how to use C-q to insert SPC or ? If such option is added to self-insert ? or SPC then is better not to add it as default, rather as customization. That way those users who need self insert for those keys will have it ready.
