Now that you mention it i can remeber to have read about that. Back then a bash
user where this is not the default. But iirc they have nowadays a option for it.
Still to me this seem not to be the whole story.
For one it only occurs with only some specific shell options and second:

% foo="$(builtin set -o)"
% echo $foo | command grep -E '(\<monitor\>|\<zle\>)'
monitor               off
zle                   off
% allopt '(\<monitor\>|\<zle\>)'
monitor               on
zle                   on

Or am i missing s.th.?
