I'd have thought simply checking that zsh doesn't lose typeahead would
be sufficient but since I already had a test program that was not far
from what you describe, I've modified and attached it. Is opening
/dev/tty instead of fd 0 necessary? You'll need to manually swap the
icanons. It's probably best to try to get an EOF in before the 3 seconds
have elapsed. Let me know if you see a problem on any system you use.
