The idea to have groups of agenda files has come up before.
It is hard to implement because agenda creating commands
are *global* commands, so the group should not be a property
of the location from where you call the agenda.

You can, of course, already make custom commands that are
restricted to a specific group of files, by setting
`org-agenda-files' as one of the options for a custom command
in org-agenda-custom-comands....
