The shell analogy might be a bit misleading and is perhaps the reason
why you seem to be talking past each other: Personally, at the shell
command line, I don't change to the directory holding the tarball,
instead I change to the directory where I want to extract it, like this
$ cd ~/src; tar xvf ~/Downloads/foo.tar.gz
This is quite different from the situation in emacs where
C-x C-f ~/Downloads/foo.tar.gz
results in buffers whose default-directory is ~/Downloads, hence the
reason why doing M-x cd ~/src in the non-hidden buffer should have the
effect as in the proposed patch.
