Here's a simple patch that helps, though I think there's more that can be done. No documentation yet. As defined, you set the show-completer style to true in any context where you want to show the status. It is examined when each element of the completer list is tried. The message is overwritten by any list output. Is there a better place for this? On the whole I think this point is OK. Is there a way of doing this only if completion takes a certain time? E.g. store SECONDS as floating point and examine it at certain key points? Is there a way of removing the zle -M output if the completion produced no output?
