That doesn't work with yank-pop, sadly, but can anyone point out a
problem with this tiny patch?

Then you can do:

    zle yank
    zle -R
    while zle read-command
    do
      # This looks odd but "zle $REPLY" might change $REPLY
      # so we have to test it before doing anything else
      if [[ $REPLY = (.|)yank-pop ]]
      then
        zle $REPLY
      else
        zle $REPLY
        break
      fi
    done

Alternately,

    zle yank
    zle -R
    zle recursive-edit

Of course that requires an extra accept-line to escape from the
recursive-edit.  You could fix that with some fancy keymap stuff
passed with -K to recursive-edit, see Functions/Zle/keymap+widget
for possible inspiration.
