No doubt the change (14fb657ba82) is fine in isolation, but now if Emacs is started from 
$HOME/somedir and I do find-file, the minibuffer prompt is "/home/mattias/somedir/" 
instead of "~/somedir/" which does not seem to be an improvement.

Worse, if cwd is $HOME, the minibuffer prompt becomes "~" instead of "~/" which 
is inconvenient since that slash has to be typed explicitly.

Thanks for reporting that. Sigh, too often when I fix one bug in expand-file-name I introduce another. I installed the attached patch to fix this bug (I and I hope it doesn't introduce yet another :-).
