Cannot seem to get that working, and the manpage mentions nothing
about it?

(mmj@staudinger) ~> echo $ZSH_VERSION
4.0.4

(mmj@staudinger) ~> echo $ZSHEDIT
emacs

(mmj@staudinger) ~> cat .zshrc | grep bash
bindkey "^[^[[D" bash-backward-kill-word

And when I hit ESC left-arrow:
No such widget `bash-backward-kill-word'
