I'd guess that it's uncommon to try to set the ARCHIVE tag at the file
level, as file-level archiving is already dealt through
org-archive-location and friends.  These standard files can optionally
be included with vA (or C-u M-x org-agenda-archives-mode).

I don't see a built-in way to do it, though I think the patch below may
be sufficient to provide the behavior you want.  It doesn't consider any
of the tag inheritance variables, but that's probably okay given that
those aren't considered for handling :ARCHIVE: subtrees either.
