completion: option stacking and arguments!

completion: option stacking and arguments!

[Vincent Bernat]

Hey!

When using completion with "_arguments '-u=[Run as specified
user]:user:_users'", completing users after "-u" requires a space or an
equal sign. However, when enabling short option stacking with "-s", this
is not the case anymore.

How to still require a space/equal before a mandatory argument when
using option stacking?

Thanks!

Also, even when the short argument is specified with "-l=-" (for
example), zsh still allows completion without any character (but
disallows completion with a space):

 docker -Dlerr<tab> -> docker -Dlerror
 docker -Dl=err<tab> -> docker -Dl=error
 docker -Dl err<tab> -> docker -Dl err

The whole completion is available here:
