The additional effect example is what looks weird to me. I was mostly
curious how it would affect completion that relys on $words or $service
since with {-<tab> or {subcommand <tab> there would only be one word on
the line. But i was reminded in IRC that aliases expand before compsys runs.

... and that was "it". I tried a build before a commit referencing
workers/34781 was made, ZSH_PATCHLEVEL was zsh-5.0.7-362-gab40656. sorry
about that :D
