Only in dired buffers.  If not in dired, and not in a file-visiting
buffer, it just goes to default-directory.

That is kind of annoying for making C-x p p C-x C-j go to the root,
though, because its behavior will depend on the current buffer...  Maybe
C-x p p can switch buffers before running the command?  Or maybe we can
just change how C-x C-j behaves so it works intuitively with C-x p p?
