Yanking text seems to ignore any setting in zle_highlight. This is
confirmed by setting zle_highlight=(none) and seeing that yank still
highlights the text in standout.
I would have expected it to respect the paste: style.
Or maybe it's a good idea that it doesn't, to differentiate between a
terminal paste and a regular one. But then again, I'd like a yank: style
in there.

I guess it's a bug that (none) doesn't disable the paste: style, but
you can explicitly put in paste: to disable it if you want, eg
zle_highlight=(none paste:)

I really only wanted to disable yank highlighting, which I find
distracting since I often know exactly what I just previously cut.
But I do find highlighting for paste generally useful on the other hand.

Try this:
f() {
zle .$WIDGET "$@"
integer start end
if (( YANK_START > YANK_END )); then
start=$YANK_END end=$YANK_START
else
end=$YANK_END start=$YANK_START
fi
region_highlight+=("$start $end bg=blue")
zle -f 'yank'
}
zle -N yank f
You will want to change 'bg=blue' to whatever your default colors are;
for some reason specifying "none" doesn't override the 'standout'
highlighting.
"zle -f" was added in zsh-5.2, for older versions just comment it out.
Cheers,
Daniel
P.S. It'd be nice to have built-in min() and max() math functions..
