It surely is useful, but I'd still like to have widgets instead of (even
symbolical) raw bytes ...

Looking at how e.g. incremental search is implemented - it looks, like it simply
calls the same getkeycmd() as main zleread() and some friends. How hard would it
be to provide a builtin, let's say zgetkeycmd (may be, flag to read would do)
with something like

zgetkeycmd widget keys

that simply sets parameter `widget'' to widget name and parameter ``keys'' to
input string? Looks like just a wrapper around getkeycmd() (or am I wrong?)

Combined with suggested keymap switching, this would provide almost unlimited
possibilities.
