Feature request is nothing but an email with justification why some new
feature will be useful for many users.

Nope. It's just that agenda and capture template selection use similar
menus. The reason why Org opened agenda files was solely related to
collection of all the tags and offering them in the completion dialogue
during capture.

That's one option. Generally, you can check out about the possible
settings for a variable by examining the variable documentation:
<F1> v variable-name <RET>
In your case:
<F1> v org-agenda-files <RET>
