Try this:

    set-keytimeout() {
      case $KEYMAP in
      (vicmd) KEYTIMEOUT=5;;
      (*) KEYTIMEOUT=1;;
      esac
    }
    zle -N zle-keymap-select set-keytimeout
    zle -N zle-line-init set-keytimeout

That should give you a short timeout when switching from insert mode to
what you call "normal mode" (command mode), and a longer one when you
are in command mode.  Sadly, for reasons already noted, it won't speed
up using ESC in command mode for deactivate-region.
