Yes, I have, namely the P-Access-Network-Info header.
There are two problems with it:
1. I cannot included called (B) party cell-id in it.
2. RFC says that proxy cannot insert this header, however I guess 3GPP allows 
P-CSCF to do it. Anyway in my case it will be an IMS AS retrieving location, 
acting as a proxy.

So I doubt it would be a suited solution.

have you looked at RC 3455? This defines IMS headers for cell-ID based  
location.
