I think you want to invoke "zle recursive-edit" with its own private
keymap.  Refer to Functions/Zle/read-from-minibuffer for an example;
you may even be able to use read-from-minibuffer directly.

The other way is to use "read -k" in in a loop, for which the most
detailed (though now fairly old and probably improvable) example is
Functions/Zle/incremental-complete-word.
