It does make me think tho, since zsh is doing all the hard work, how 
much more would be needed to bypass ls entirely and handle the output?  
This is baloney but:

$ echo $(**/*(.om[1])

... idea/question being that instead of ls receiving the list of files, maybe it could be done more directly.  Not that there's any need for such a thing, I'm just curious.
