When trying to set “Shift+Space” as the shortcut key for
“Switch to next input source” or “Switch to previous input source”,
one gets the message:

    “The shortcut "Shift+Space" cannot be used because it will become
     impossible to type using this key. Please try with a key such as
     Control, Alt or Shift at the same time.”

See screen shot.

But “Shift+Space” is usually OK to use and should be allowed here.

Shift+Space can't work with an OSD switcher as I explained in bug 695823.

Sorry, I actually changed my mind here.
