There's more...
zstyle ':completion:*' menu select=1 interactive
The last one is really interesting, although I experience the same
(1) problem as described and presented here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/zsh/comments/8ur9rl/space_in_interactive_menu_completion/
https://asciinema.org/a/189304
and
(2) blocks tab from going into menu selection (one have to use arrows),
(3) doesn't start again after using arrows,
so I won't use this.

Thanks a lot for new ideas:) It took me another 2 days to review
fzf-related projects and I've ended up with:
bindkey -M emacs '^f' fzf_completion (from fzf-tab-completion)
bindkey -M emacs '^R' fzf-history-widget (fzf/shell/key-bindings.zsh)
These 2 seems reasonable and working well when called on purpose:
- fzf_completion to search for descriptions of "-- described" options,
- fzf-history-widget for convenience.
Other fzf completions seem disruptive for me and break my CLI flow,
making the work less smooth and effectively slower than pure zsh.
