Thank you. I found out that WORDCHARS actually comes from emacs. I thought it was zsh-specific. So it makes sense that these behave differently.

I did that and a few other adjustments to the keybindings now to get the behaviour I want:
```
bindkey -M vicmd 'w' forward-word
bindkey -M vicmd 'b' backward-word
bindkey -M viins '^W' backward-kill-word
# better word matching
autoload -U select-word-style
select-word-style normal
# these characters do _not_ separate words but are part of words
zstyle ':zle:*' word-chars '*?[]~;!#$%^(){}<>'
```
Now it seems to behave like I want it to.
Cheers
henk
