Bug description

Spacebar works like enter when using nemo to send files to an external program. This happens even when searching filenames and that makes it impossible to search files with spaces in the names directly. If one selects one of the suggested files and then returns to the search bar to type the "space as select" behavior stops and one can type space in the search again.

Not sure if this is intended or not, but it's annoying.

Steps to reproduce

Open any software that uses nemo to fetch files. I just use Firefox on any site that wants to receive files. Open any folder, try to search and press space.

Expected behavior

One should be able to search for files with spaces in their names. Leave select file for enter, or at least add on option to disable this spacebar behavior.
