It's the same in master. I'm not positive, but i don't think it's possible to
make new history entries actually selectable until the next prompt. You would
have to make your widget run `zle .accept-line` or `zle .send-break` (which
will cause whatever's currently on the line to be accepted or discarded,
respectively)
