} I can't reproduce this problem at all. Even from zsh -f, it works for
} me. So either I've misunderstood your steps or there's something in your
} setup that it isn't allowing for.

I'm doing

  zsh -f
  autoload -U compinit;compinit -D
  find . -ctime <ESC x>menu-select<RET>
  <select "before"><RET><ESC z><TAB>

Where that final TAB can be any movement in the menu (arrow keys, etc.).

As I said this is probably menu-selection in general -- leaving and then
entering again without passing through "normal" completion picks up the
old selection where it left off instead of starting a new selection?

} If you use a binding such as the following when selecting before/since,
} does it work?
}   bindkey -M menuselect "/" accept-and-infer-next-history

Yes, if I add that binding and then do

  <select "before"><RET><ESC z>/

and/or simply omit the <RET><ESC z> and immediately type /, the selection
does advance to the numbers and the "sense" group disappears.
