Sorry, that breaks find-alternate-file outside of Dired buffers:
(defadvice find-alternate-file (around dired-directory activate)
"In Dired, use `dired-directory' as `buffer-file-name' when called
interactively."
(let ((buffer-file-name (if (and (interactive-p)
(eq major-mode 'dired-mode)
(stringp dired-directory))
dired-directory
buffer-file-name)))
ad-do-it))
