} Any thoughts about completion in vared?  Would it be possible to get it to

} compstate[parameter] set?

How about something like

	function vared {
	    local _complete_vared=${(Pt)1}
	    builtin vared "$@"
	}

And then somewhere (I'm not familiar enough with it yet to be sure where)
in the completion functions, do

	case $_complete_vared in
	array|association) compstate[parameter]=$words[1]
			   compstate[context]=_array_value;;
	scalar) compstate[parameter]=$words[1]
		compstate[context]=_value;;
	*) ;;
	esac

Obviously some tweaking is needed to handle "vared -c ..." and so on, but
you get the idea.
