Got it. Yes, that text is now out of date.
It never should have said that C-q SPC affects what is
searched for, in any case. It should only have said (and
can say now) that C-q SPC, as usual, appends a SPC char to
the search string.
What Isearch does with the text you put in the search string
is another matter. But C-q SPC still works - it does what it
is supposed to do. It is Isearch that is more complicated
now, and not necessarily intuitive. But that cannot be blamed
on C-q. ;-)
