I think building directory scanning and sorting into the element is probably
excessive.  It's not really GStreamer's job, and I don't think you want it in
your API if you can avoid it.

If you're running a pipeline with gst-launch, you can use shell commands to
construct the list.  If you're writing an application, maybe appsrc would be a
better option.  The 'read file into buffer' part of the element is not very
complicated, so I'm not sure it makes sense to build too much other stuff into
the element to provide access to it.
