Selection mode is an action like any other. As such you can change its keyboard
shortcut and even assign nothing to it. If you remove the default shortcut
"Space" from the action "Select Files and Folders", you will get the old
behaviour back.

Aside from this, I don't really think there would be an issue with the keyboard
shortcut only being Ctrl+Space, since one already needs Ctrl+Arrows to move to
items without selecting them. But I understand that every change like this will
be disruptive to at least some existing users to some extent.

In any case since you can easily change the keyboard shortcut so your expected
behaviour happens, I think we should consider this specific bug report
resolved.
