API overide creates by ID / name

[olof]

We have done an integration using the API where one of our other systems creates opportunities. We would like to define the created by ID to be something other than the user setup for the API call but this does not seem possible.
I can understand why in normal use this would not be user editable but after changing it from read only it is still not possible. Our developer has hacked around this by also making an SQL call BT this feels ugly.. is this intentional, could we have it so that user accounts could be created with permission to change the created by ID?
