Hi there,
We - the grml team - have recently discussed rather substantial changes in our interactive zsh setup. The setup is quite large, large enough to not be maintainable by our limited resources.
Therefore, we will be cutting down its size in the not-so-distant future. The current plan is outlined here:

We might make some of the removed features available as add-ons. A tentative list of ideas is here:

Work on this will begin shortly - albeit in a separate branch of the `grml-etc-core' package's git repository.
If there is anything in the removal list, that you'd like to keep, make a convincing argument as to why the feature in question should be kept.
After the cleanup is done, we are planning to split the zsh setup out of `grml-etc-core' and into a package of its own, so that users who are only interested in the zsh-setup can quickly install just that on any debian-based OS.
Regards, Frank - on behalf of the grml team.
