Having finally had a chance to try it ...

With the zsh/paramter patch it _never_ removes the auto-suffix, because it 
never calls a zle insert widget.  It's no better than LBUFFER+=''.

I'm reaching the conclusion that we do need some way for a user-defined 
widget to announce whether it should be considered an insertion, deletion, 
or motion, so that zle can deal properly with the suffixes added by the 
previous widget.
