Ah, yes, I see it's provided by dired-x, which does ship with emacs, but
is not loaded by default.

Its documentation says

#+begin_example
Alist of major modes and their opinion on `default-directory'.
This is given as a Lisp expression to evaluate.  A resulting value of
nil is ignored in favor of `default-directory'.
#+end_example

Looking some more into the code, it looks like it is not meant to be a
generic replacement for `default-directory', although its name would
suggest that (to me at least).

That is a great solution, thanks!
