Confirmed - this works with (beta) version 3.1.2, not with (released)
version 3.0 (which seems to put the mark at the start of the line when
it is first edited or something).

BTW, it was not very easy to compile on the Dec Alpha under OSF/1 
version 3.2.  In Src/Zle/zle_tricky.c line 1551 the parameters to
yp_all() are not the same (the third parameter is the callback structure
on OSF1, not a pointer to it as in the code.  As a diff -c:

It also required GNU make (missing .SUFFIXES in several of the makefiles)
not the OSF1 version.  But lots of GNU and GNU-is stuff needs that...
