Depends on the context.

If the function is already executing as a ZLE widget, it might invoke
"zle recursive-edit".

If it's running as a command or from inside a script, using "vared" to
read from the keyboard into a local is one way.

There are examples of both of these in the Functions tree in the distribution.
