Tested using local rsync 3.2.3 and 3.2.7, remote rsync 3.1.3 and 3.2.7. So I think the patch should be fine as is. (I would expect very few people to run an over two years old version of rsync and a recent version of zsh on the same local machine.)

-Q with compadd's meaning is unlikely to be useful with _remote_files so
overloading it should be harmless enough.

-O is the scp option to use the old protocol. Given that option, scp
completion would ideally fallback to the old behaviour.
