I switched to zsh 3-4 years ago. I use it only on my local macs ( work & home ).
I will never install it on any remote system, because it doesn't feel right to force a shell to other remote users.
Also how much time do you need something that fancy on a remote prompt? The nice features of bash like [Ctrl-r] works everywhere and the shortcuts ( Ctrl-a, etc. ) are usually the same.
The power that zsh gives me is all about my local dev machine. Things like utilities command completion or `scp remote-server:~/ [tab]` to find a file on a remote machine, or the countless other extras are mostly useful on my local.
