What I meant was to write

  (defun vc-clone (... &optional ... open-dir)
    (interactive (list ... t))
    ...
    (when open-dir
      (dired directory))
    directory)  

instead of

  (defun vc-clone (... &optional ... open-dir)
    (interactive (list ... t))
    ...
    (if open-dir
        (dired directory)
      directory))

The advantage is that you can still request the directory to be opened
when invoked non-interactively, you avoid the ambiguity of
`called-interactively-p' and the return value is always of the same
type, and not sometimes whatever `find-file'/`dired' returns.

I think it would cleaner if we split this up into two commits:

1. Moving `package-vc-heuristic-alist',
2. Making `vc-clone' interactive.

This should certainly be replaced by a `define-obsolete-variable-alias'!
