Ah, that's it:
function insert_file_fzf
commandline -a (fzf --layout=reverse-list)
end
bind \co insert_file_fzf

Thanks for the pointer!

No, what I mean is that ZSH has some kind of line editor prompt where
you can execute all command line editor commands by typing them in (with
completion), e.g., things like forward-char, kill-line, etc. That's
useful for finding out which editor commands exist and could be bound to
a key.
