You can implement a new command in addition to defcustom.
These options are not mutually exclusive.
And the command even could use the new defcustom
in the implementation, e.g.
(defun vc-root-dir ()
(interactive)
(let ((vc-dir-default-directory t))
(call-interactively 'vc-dir) ...
But the command has more unsolved issues:
1. command name - the most natural name would be vc-root-dir,
but this name is already taken by a non-interactive function.
2. keybinding - there are many contradicting proposals,
and leaving it unbound is not the best solution.

These details are explained further down in the docstring:
+When nil, `vc-dir' reads a directory name using the minibuffer.
+When non-nil and the current directory is under version control,
+`vc-dir' doesn't ask for a directory name and uses the VC root directory.
+When a string and `vc-dir' is invoked in a directory outside of
+version control, then this string is used as a default directory name.
