Sorry, I can't understand you clearly.

Anyway, I wish that `bookmark-buffer-file-name' returns dired-directory
relative to `~/'.

examples of `bookmark-buffer-file-name' processing:

  case:
    home directory:  "d:/home/user/"
    dired-directory: "d:/home/user/xyz/"

    (bookmark-buffer-file-name)
    now
      => "d:/home/user/xyz/"
    wish
      => "~/xyz/"

Yes.
I use `defadvice' in practice.
But I made a patch for bookmark.el temporarily.
