Indeed!  :)

Probably the way to do it would be to wrap the agenda code which
operates on certain files, and let-bind the org-agenda-done face around
that code depending on which file it is.  That would probably require
copying the function in question and overriding it with advice.
Certainly doable (on first glance, anyway), but not easy for someone
unfamiliar with elisp or the agenda code.

I would guess that a more general solution, which could bind certain
variables to certain values depending on which file the agenda is being
constructed from, could be useful in other ways as well.  It might be
possible to integrate this with org-agenda-custom-commands, or in a
customizeable variable mapping files to lists of variables, to make it
fairly straightforward to use.
