which gets rid of lots lots of useful functionality, like
context-aware autocompletion.  Can a bbappend file get rid of that
function, or do I need to edit the actual recipe? I've attempted
defining an empty do_install_append() { : } but it didn't work.

  it might be worth asking why zsh is doing that in the first place.
if one doesn't want all that stuff, *that* is where an append could be
used to remove it. i think zsh removing it by default is
inappropriate.

That's right; it's better to fix the original recipe and send the patch so it can be included in meta-oe. What is written in recipes is not some kind of Universal Truth; if you see how things could be done better, go ahead and do it.
