Sorry, I can't agree. By *FAR* the most common editing operation is
to either either insert or delete to the left of the cursor position,
which means at the end of LBUFFER.
Furthermore, zew-process-buffer always manipulates whatever the (z)
flag's idea of a "word" is, which [as the "bufferwords()" thread has
demonstrated] is somewhat tenuously defined, and may not correspond
to what the user wants to consider a "word" (see e.g. $WORDCHARS).
[I would probably save CURSOR and MARK, set CURSOR to zero, then loop
on "zle forward-word" until I reached or passed the old CURSOR, rather
than try to match up the results of (Z:n:) to $BUFFER. Then restore
CURSOR and MARK, of course.]
