Maybe some advice might help you:

(advice-add 'read-directory-name :around
            (lambda (orig-fun prompt &optional dir default-dirname
			      mustmatch initial)
              (cond
	       ((equal prompt "Base directory: ")
		(funcall orig-fun prompt dir default-dirname
			 nil initial))
               (t
		(funcall orig-fun prompt dir default-dirname
			 mustmatch initial))))
            '((name . read-directory-name-no-mustmatch)))

It overrides the MUSTMATCH argument of read-directory-name in rgrep.
