Sorry, I didn't realize you were talking about vc-state. No I guess
vc-state would have to keep working with absolute file names (tho it
could be extended to also accept relative file names).

I'd expect that the caller should be able to easily arrange for each
file in the list to *already* be relative to default-directory, so
there's no need to look for the common parent.
