What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Please replace the string "View more" in Tags Home widget, with a GUI element like '...' otherwise it is confusing to mix readable content like "View more" which looks and feels like a users personal file, with other information.
Replace "View more" with just '...'

Sometimes text is more informative than a few dots. I think current situation is good. Also think about accessibility 👓

What are your thoughts and adding a chevron to the container header?

For me - no. This (current) is the only most logical place and the words are good: one short words holds valuable information. Besides: On some cases three dots at the bottom of a (flyout) list can also look like a drag/resize gripper. Which is not what it does, ergo: confusing.
I specifically do not agree with "which looks and feels like a users personal file". It's has no icon, is centered, has different color, it clearly looks like a link.

Chevron looks like the right answer to me. So the perceptual visual hierarchy is streamlined and not all over the place. Words are mostly reserved for content, while software (chrome?) is more visual and intuitive, clearly apart from the users own textual meaningful content.

Chevron looks like the right answer to me.

That's also a possibility, just I would place it in the same place as the word is.
