You haven't actually answered my question.  Can you, please, explain
what changes would need to be made to zsh in order to implement your
upthread proposal?  It's fine to link to external sources for details
but the gist should be self-contained and understandable by readers
familiar with zsh and its build system but nothing else.

For avoidance of doubt, I am simply asking for information on the
proposal.  I am not yet sold on it.
