Press space again then. 

<space> now
  - "cools the cursor" (i.e. disables autocorrect until the next insertion)
    if the cursor is "hot" (i.e. last thing was insertion)
or
  - removes the selection if present
or
  - leaves the inset

Not nice, I know. But there aren't too many free keys...

Actually I think I'll change the behaviour. "Scrolling" though "similar"
symbols could be done by Cursor right/left (no need for <Shift-8> (aka *))
and I have a somewhat more compact format for lib/autocorrect in mind

(like

>     =    \geq \geqq \geqslant
\geq  /    \ngeq \ngeqq 

such that  '>' '='  gives a '\geq', and left/right rotates through the list 
of three "similar symbols", and pressing / after any of them gives
'\ngeq'  etc.

I just did it... I was getting used to waiting for Lars' nod for trivial
changes ;-)
