I looked at the code for other agenda types, such as ~tags-todo~ and ~occur-tree~ and have guessed at how to form one of these.

My understanding of the Agenda is not great so I'll point you to a Worg
page:
<http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-custom-agenda-commands.html>
If you think you can add to it, please go ahead. That said, I think it
would be worthwhile to add some information on the expected function
signature in the docstring instead of just – "A user-defined function".
Hope this helps,
