I'm in the Drive for Desktop beta program and it combines the Backup & Sync functionality with Drive File stream, so you can sync 'My Drive' to any folder on your computer in addition to having a drive letter for file streaming. It also supports multi-account support. I've had some performance issues with it so it still needs work.

I guess this doesn't help on Windows, but with the stable release of Drive on macOS I just symlinked the volume to the location of the original directory.

Windows 10 supports symlinking files and directories if that's what you meant.

NTFS/ReFS support symlinks if that's what you meant.

That's a better description actually. Windows 10 is too vague.
