No need for screen, if your terminal supports the cnorm and
civis escape sequences:
zsh -c 'zmodload -i zsh/terminfo zsh/zselect; while ((1)) {
echoti civis; zselect -t20; echoti cnorm; zselect -t20}' &
Note that some terminfo databases are broken, you may want to
try to hardcode the escape sequences. For xterm/rxvt for
instance, replace echoti civis with print -n '\e[?25l' amd
echoti cnorm with print -n '\e[?25h'
