I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but what would be the feasability of adding the key (and name?) of the creator of the object sending the request to the HTTP headers that are sent when using llHTTPRequest?

Adding the creator key would be relatively easy. It falls into a large group of data about the object that we could include in the headers. There is a trade-off between the ease of having that information automatically added to the headers, vs. the extra data it adds to every request. We took a stab at what we thought would be most commonly useful. We may revise the list of headers in the future. It would be great to know which ones people actually made use of.

Creator name poses a small problem, like owner name: We may not actually have the information at the time of the HTTP request, and in such circumstances, the name will be unknown.
