I can't think of any reason autosuggest would need to rebind that widget.

"emulate -L" potentially resets a lot of things.  The decision for
each function has to be whether the scope requires all those elements
to be reset, or whether to make minimal changes so as to behave as
much as possible like the rest of the user's environment.

In the case of url-quote-magic I can't presently think of any reason
not to use "emulate -L".  That said, I also can't think of any
contributed function that intentionally defends itself against pattern
disables.
