Nothing fancy. I simply use the Zsh dirstack (with auto_pushd) so 'cd -' instead to be limited to the previous path only like in Bash, can be expanded with Tab to one of the last DIRSTACKSIZE path. The dirstack can also be saved to a file and reused on the next session. Then I've stolen the "up" function somewhere to cd to a specific level using a part of the path when I'm deep in a FS tree. Finally, not limited to cd only, Zsh can also expand paths with only the initials of the dirs, so 'cd /v/c/a/aTab' is expanded to 'cd /var/cache/apt/archives/', usually with less typing required on Bash...
