Then I see no problem whatsoever. Indeed "space-insert enspace" can still
insert \enspace, and I would expect that it does so. Only, I have to be
careful to know what I am doing.

I was thinking about renaming some entry from "Enspace" to "Enskip", as
\enskip would be inserted, anyway. But it is simpler, seemingly, as we
don't need to do nothing (apart from being aware of what \enspace really
does, I mean).

Given that this is the first time that Enspace appears in a menu,
why not simply (1) renaming "Enspace" to "Enskip", (2) make sure that
when "protect" is selected "\hspace*{0.5em}" is produced instead of
"\enspace", and (3) leaving "space-insert enspace" as it is but only
change the color of the inset to something that looks dangerous? ;-)
Or, maybe inserting something like:
\_ _/
V
instead of simply
\___/
in order to suggest that that could be some vertical space?
