Does the internal :pwd command return the same value as the external :!pwd ?

You might set 'autochdir' but that would _always_ set the current
directory to the directory of the current file, even when opened by :new
or :sview, and there are problems with that.

AFAICT, there is no specific autocommand to detect when a file is
dropped on the gvim icon, or edited by file association.
