Ideally, I would like to have the document checked out to the originator just after they drop it in a library.
If I use the "Check out" method in the Sharepoint Document wizard, it will be checked-out to my K2 Blackpearl service account. Is there a way to achieve what I want?
There might be a way but it involves giving Trusted Computing Base (TCB) rights to the K2 server service account.

Basically, you can write code to impersonate a user without needing his password.
However, it should be noted that giving TCB rights could be a potential security loophole and needs to be properly controlled in a production environment.
