It would help if the doc of these commands (and others that use
`dired-read-shell-command') mentioned that if `dired-x' is loaded then
they make use of option `dired-guess-shell-command' to guess an
appropriate default value (command).

To find this out now, users need to check the implementations of such
commands, see that they call `dired-read-shell-command', and check the
doc of that function.
