Yes, that would be great.  Better still, make it optional.  If
vm-provide-editable-default-folder (or whatever) is t, it's there in
the minibuffer and you can edit it.  If nil, then it's not there by
default, BUT you can generate it (yank it from somewhere?) at the
stroke of a key.

THAT would be AWESOME!
