I have no particular need to be there hugely early (before the desks open, which is 3 hours before the first flight?), save for the fact that I have a few vouchers for the UA RCC (that are going out of date) and was thinking about going to the BA gates via Terminal C/D so that I could take advantage of a few free libations.

You should be fine - they will most likely take your I-94 at the gate. If not, you might want to turn it in, in order to avoid trouble. I typically do not visit the check in counter at IAD but head straight to security and the lounge.
