My somewhat related point is that UNLESS we're going to add an option
to "zle -N"/"zle -C" to control that new bitmask flag for user-defined
widgets, the unusual and therefore flag-worthy case applies only with
respect to builtins, and therefore is "requires $WIDGET to be caller-
referential."

This might be worth documenting.  It might have to be paired with
"zle .run-help" or similar?

} with the identify of the widget. That's why I'd sooner regard it
} as bindk that is overloaded.

Indeed, "bindkey -a z vi-change" makes "cc" "cz" and "zc" synonymous.

} I don't think adding another variable like $WIDGET is a good idea.

It'd need to be a $LASTKEYS to go with $LASTWIDGET, if anything.
