Catch URLs (was: "Literal" command execution)

It's almost really great. :)

I have setopt warncreateglobal enabled by default because it helps me 
to catch global variables that should be local, especially in my own 
functions.
Now, when I run the autoload line above and then paste an URL I am 
warned every time the URL is being escaped.

Try something like this to reproduce it. In this example I'll just use 
an arbitrary URL I happen to have on my clipboard:

setopt warncreateglobal
autoload -U url-quote-magic; zle -N self-insert url-quote-magic
curl -LO

output:
8 of these:
url-quote-magic:68: array parameter reply created globally in function
url-quote-magic:72: array parameter reply created globally in function

I'm not sure how to fix this, tips for that are appreciated.
