I don't believe that it is only for remote directories. The buffers menu
shows usually the contents of the buffer local variable
`list-buffers-directory', if the buffer has no related `buffer-file-name'
(which is the case for shell and eshell). This directory is initialized
with the contents of `default-directory', when you open the shell or
eshell buffer, and it doesn't change afterwards.
It would be better to show the contents of `default-directory' in the
buffer menu in such cases, because this variable is updated when you "cd"
somewhere else.

That I don't understand.
