Would it be possible to implement some kind of 'zle push-undo-stack'
and 'zle pop-undo-stack'? If you push it you would get a whole new
instance of undo, and popping it then throws all those entries away
again. I can't really think of an instance outside recursive-edit
where it would be useful, though.
