Hi!

I have a secret wish which will soon no longer be secret ;)

When I do an error, such as
rl -rf /tmp/*

zsh is wrong on the fix, so I hit `e', but then the cursor is at the
end of the line.  Since zsh knows it's rl I want to fix, I'd like to
have the cursor there.

Well, that's just a one-of-those-painful-users-wishes ;)
