ACK from me... I submitted a similar patch last May 4 which also changed sha1_name.c to do this. The patch added a config variable to control this (probably not desirable). The patch also handled leading/embedded . and .. . In p4 you can say p4 <operation> file#rev and file is interpreted relatively. I wanted to be able to say git <operation> tree:file and have file interpreted relatively. This should only happen when you are inside the work tree. Good luck!
