If all you are trying to do is make the tilde behave as above
then I would first question why. As you can enter a new filename
starting with tilde without deleting the existing directory.
If you really want to delete the directory in the prompt it
may be worth trying to run the minibuffer-complete command
automatically after inserting the tilde.
You could also look at minibuffer-complete to see how that
deletes the prompt
