Now that I look at it, that is true in Outlook as well. If you press spacebar on a focused message without control it will unselect all other messages and select the focused one.
Thunderbird does not unselect other records when pressing space bar. In my opinion Thunderbird's behavior is better, but that might be a matter of taste.
After some more thinking... Current Roundcube behavior is even better. Allows to open a message (in preview frame) with space bar. I opt to not change this behavior.
I think it is a known fact that to select many messages Ctrl is used, so space+Ctrl should be something obvious. I think it's better to not use space w/o Ctrl to select a message nor add it to selection.
