After some more investigation I noticed that unsetting local-history
does actually work, but re-running the widget after entering something
does not. So if I have this in my zshrc:

  bindkey '^r' history-incremental-pattern-search-backward

If I then press ^r and enter some word it gets correctly found in the
global history, but if I press ^r again to search for an earlier
occurence it always fails. Is there any way to fix this?

Thanks,
Jan
