But the command has more unsolved issues: 1. command name - the most natural name would be vc-root-dir, but this name is already taken by a non-interactive function.vc-dir-quick was my idea.This name implies its implementation has better performance over its slower competitor.
vc-dir-instant?
I'm saying both the option name and the first sentence of the docstring don't fit its purpose, or the later description.This option is multi-purpose and one of its possible values is: When a string and `vc-dir' is invoked in a directory outside of version control, then this string is used as a default directory name.
You got a point there, but that seems like a rare use case (not sure who would ever use it). I think the variable would be better named after its main use scenario.
