Someone should feel free to go ahead with that patch, but here's another possible avenue for improvement: don't ask for the directory when there's an existing vc-dir buffer, and it's for a parent of/or the current directory.

Just display it, maybe not even refresh until the user asks. That will cut some of the prompts overhead as well.

Although if some users work on several dirs simultaneously, we'll need a way to force the directory selection, and the prefix argument is already taken.
