I have such a thing implemented. You can have a look at my .zshrc
to see how it works:

In short, it uses the show_mode function to display the mode
(normal or insert) and rewrites all vi widgets to also call
show_mode :) It overwrites some area in my (multi-line) prompt,
see also the screenshot on
http://gott-gehabt.de/800_wer_wir_sind/thomas/Homepage/pics/prompt.png
Doesn't work perfectly, though: for overly long lines, the
display may shift to where you don't want it. Of course, you
could also modify the show_mode function to display the mode in
the RPROMPT, then this problem would go away...
Ciao,
Thomas
