 Ah, thanks! This:

 ######
 # completition list colorization (emacs style)
 highlight-comp()
 {
   reply=( "=(#b)${PREFIX:q}(?)*==1" )
 }

 highlight-comp-files()
 {
   reply=()
   [ -n "$PREFIX" -a ! -d "$PREFIX" ] && reply+=( 
 "=(#b)${PREFIX:q:t}(?)*==1" )
   reply+=( "=(#b)(?)*==1" )
 }

 zstyle -e ':completion:*' list-colors highlight-comp
 zstyle -e ':completion:*:all-files' list-colors highlight-comp-files
 ######

 ...now covers a couple more edge cases where an argument might match 
 some existing files (git completion being one of the main offenders ;)).

 One more thing I'd like to cover when completing files.

 Is there a way to get the prefix up to the insert position when 
 completing something like:

 ls ///list<TAB>
 (where the cursor is placed just after the first /)

 Looking at the documentation, $compstate should help, but inside the 
 callback function PREFIX is still set to "///list" and 
 $compstate[insert_positions] is empty.
