I'd expect that people who use SPC for completion are pretty seasoned Emacs
users, so they shouldn't be too annoyed by having to add
(define-key minibuffer-completion-map " " 'minibuffer-complete-word)
in their .emacs. Adding an option for it would only be useful for people
who configure their Emacs exclusively with Custom.
