Hello, Sebastien.  The manual says, in (org) Drawers:

  Sometimes you want to keep information associated with an entry, but
  you normally don't want to see it.  For this, Org mode has _drawers_.
  [...]  In order to look inside the drawer, you need to move the cursor
  to the drawer line and press <TAB> there.

and I like what the manual says, I would like it to be true.  The
/purpose/ of drawers is to keep the information out of sight, unless
explicit action is taken, as stated.  I do not see why RET and SPC from
the Agenda would act differently from one another in that respect, nor
why one of them would contradict the definition and spirit of a drawer.
If for some reason it should be an exception, this should be documented
and justified within (org) Agenda commands, which it is currently not.

François
