Interesting. So is there no way to mitigate this issue in zsh? Because bash
doesn't produce the same results in either tmux or xfce terminal.

Also, if this is purely a terminal implementation problem, can you give me
any direction about where the problem lies so that I can file a more
accurate bug report with the project? And what terminals do you recommend
that exhibit correct behavior on resize? Is tmux affected because it is
also flawed or because the terminal that contains it is flawed?
