I totally agree, Dracosaurian. Gareth's way of making the universe grounded is based on the way the events of the films are handled, not by how realistic they are. Gareth had even said in an interview that he liked to think of his approach to the movie like "What if this stuff really happened?" It's already very likely that Rodan, and possibly Mothra as well, will share the ancient giant prehistoric alpha-predator backstory of Godzilla and the M.U.T.O.s, so giving the same origin to Ghidorah might be pushing it a bit and also make the concept seem tired and overused. I think that as long as it is approached in a way that tries to suspend disbelief and doesn't ruin the realism of the movie, Ghidorah could very well be given some sort of extraterrestrial origin. That being said, Ghidorah being the pawn of alien overlords would most likely be out of the question.
