It occurred to me that using the preexec hook, I could get the command line to be in another color.
However, there are some bugs. The white command line characters below come about from using tab completion.

This last problem was from typing “ls” and then tab. And it gets worse if you try to backspace.
Here is an easy way to reproduce this:
Z% PS1="$PS1%B"
Z% function preexec { echo -n '\e[39m' }
Z% echo yea
yea
Z% ls a/b/c/d
Z% ls a/b/c
d
Z%
