zsh-2.6-beta11, problem with key bindings

[Mikhail Kuperblum]

Hi, folks!

I'm not on your list, but if my message goes through, please note
that key bindings appears to be screwed up in beta11. All control 
keys (for example, ^E, ^A) no longer work in command line editing 
when in "vi" mode (bindkey -v). When control key is pressed, it 
simply gets echoed to the screen. I don't think that this change
in behavior was intentional (at least I hope so).

If there will be any response to this message please, Cc to 
mikhail@klm.com. Thanks!

P.S. I've compiled beta11 under SunOS 4.3.1 and SCO OSE 5 and result
     is the same, as described above.

This is intentional.  In vi, ^E and ^A are not special characters, so
in ZLE they are bound to self-insert.  If you want them to do something
other than the default, you can change their bindings using the bindkey
command.  If you want emacs-style editing, use "bindkey -e".
