One additional thought: It would be nice to be able to specify that
_paths_ are completed, rather than merely directories; i.e. like the
difference between "compctl -g '*(-/)'" and "compctl -/". I'm not
convinced that "zstyle *directories file-patterns '*(-/)'" does that.
} some kind of blaring all-caps text in the tag-order documentation:
}

Hrm, maybe even add "... BUT ONLY _IF_ ANY ARE GENERATED FOR THAT TAG."
