} Completion "sees through" aliases.  You'll find that with the above
} alias, "diff <TAB>" and "colordiff <TAB>" behave the same way.

That's actually not true.  You have to "setopt complete_aliases" for
completion to "see through".  If for some reason you do not want to
set that, THEN:

} Therefore, define a completion for colordiff:
} 
}     compdef colordiff=diff
