M-! date RET

;; Both, *Async Shell Command* and *Shell Command Output* have
;; as `default-directory' "~/"
M-x dired RET /sudo::/tmp RET

M-! date RET
M-& date RET
;; Neither *Async Shell Command* nor *Shell Command Output* have
;; updated their `default-directory'

;;; Expected: Both output buffers have reseted their `default-directory' to their
;;; caller `default-directory'.
;;; This is the behavior when you run shell commands in non-tramp buffers, for instance:
M-x dired RET /tmp RET

M-! date RET
M-& date RET
;;; Both output buffers have reseted their `default-directory' to "/tmp/"
