One can bypass the "locatraps" option by creating a TRAPxxx function, e.g.
the function remains defined after endtrapscope() but a trap created with
`trap ... xxx' is removed.
This is one of two reasons that Functions/Prompts/promp_bart_setup uses an
assignment to the functions assoc to install a SIGWINCH handler, so I'm not
sure I advocate changing it; but it at least ought to be mentioned in the
doc under LOCAL_TRAPS.
For completeness, I should point out that the TRAPxxx defintion only wins
if there IS NOT already a trap for signal xxx at some higher scope. So it
does behave somewhat inconsistently.
I was about to doublecheck on what happens with `trap ... xxx' in that last
situation, but zsh just crashed again, so I'm going to quit fooling with
signals until Sven comes back online.
