You are right.

This isn't valid: (setq org-agenda-files "~/my/special/path/org/")

M-x org-agenda RET will reply with: `org-agenda-files' cannot be a single 
directory

I propose the following for the FAQ:

(setq org-agenda-directory "~/Org/")
(setq org-agenda-files (directory-files (expand-file-name org-agenda-directory) 
t "^[^\.][^#][[:alnum:]]+\.org$"))

That will add every org file. I've had the problem of normal glob
expansion to include emacs lock files that are in this format:
.#todo.org

I was under the impression that org-agenda-directory set to
~/my/special/path/org/ would Just Work(tm) because if you do C-c a a v A
it pulls in the right files for me.
