I too have this need. I've put together a working example of an IOS api to originate a file request. You can find it at: https://github.com/tjdhome/DropboxFileRequester.git.

It's a bit of a hack (uses a hidden webview), but it gets the job done. I have automated the second part (actually, the easier part) and will post that code in a day or so.

The repo has now moved to bitbucket. Find it at https://tjdhome@bitbucket.org/tjdhome/dropboxfilerequester.git.BTW, this solution is deployed in an IOS app in the store.
