Add support for lifx multizone lights like Lifx Z
Unfortunately, at this time I cannot help with getting multizone supported because I do not have LIFX Z hardware.
Just to be clear, what is the current status for LIFX Z with Home Assistant? I guess that you can control the color of the entire strip but not set individual zones?
Yes, in Home Assistant it works that way at this moment.
Home Assistant 0.49 has basic LIFX multizone support: the lifx_set_state call has a new zones attribute that will make it affect only the specified zones.
