Whether it seeks or not is rather irrelevant to the question of whether 
or not it is unix-like behavior.  seek() is quite normal behavior.

I'm not sure what you're talking about, since that's not what zsh does. 
  When you use "=(command)", zsh will run "command" with its output 
directed to a file in /tmp.  The path to that file will be substituted 
where "=()" was used in the command-line.
