The agenda list would be easier to parse with the eye if each
priority level (A, B, C) had its own face. This way the user
could optionally set a background color for these priorities, so
priority items would stand out from the todo list.

Try c-h v org-priority-faces.

Silly me, I forgot to check if a later version has that feature.
I'm still on 6.21b.
Thanks.

You missed the *other* variable :-)
C-h v org-agenda-fontify-priorities <RET>
,----
| org-agenda-fontify-priorities is a variable defined in `org-agenda.el'.
| Its value is cookies
|
| Documentation:
| Non-nil means, highlight low and high priorities in agenda.
| When t, the highest priority entries are bold, lowest priority italic.
| However, settings in org-priority-faces will overrule these faces.
| When this variable is the symbol `cookies', only fontify the
| cookies, not the entire task.
| This may also be an association list of priority faces, whose
| keys are the character values of `org-highest-priority',
| `org-default-priority', and `org-lowest-priority' (the default values
| are ?A, ?B, and ?C, respectively). The face may be a named face,
| or a list like `(:background "Red")'.
|
| You can customize this variable.

HTH,
