So the sequence of commands would be

% unalias edit
% reportbug &
% alias edit='emacsclient -c -s /tmp/emacs1000/server'

If you're going to do it that way, you've really got to
interrogate the old value and restore it afterwards, rather
than having edit defined in two places. Otherwise, how do
you keep them in sync.

I did feel the same way, but was going to simply re-source my .zshrc after the report bug run is over.

Most people wouldn't run reportbug often enough to worry
about a subshell, would they?
