You should just be able to setopt SHARE_HISTORY to have zsh always append
the entry early.  Of course, that also has the effect of the shell
importing the shared history from other shells, so it's nice to have things
like up/down arrow set to only browse local history (while things like
search look in the shared history).  There was a fairly recent discussion
of up-line-or-local-history() functions and a discussion of making
everything local except for isearch functions.
