...and some of the bold, right? But these colours don't look very good 
either. The patch below gives complist what I get as the default for
`ls --colour'. Dunno if they are better...

Maybe, but what if you have a terminal that doesn't understand the
codes used for highlighting? Setting `ZLS_COLO(|U)RS' is a bit like
saying: `I know that my terminal can understand these codes'.

Hm. Autoloaded parameters are intended for modules that *define*
parameters instead of just using them. But then, complist does nothing 
if `ZLS_COLO(|U)RS' isn't set. Hm. Maybe.
