The thing that makes me think that Eru (or the Valar) were not responsible for the dream is that they seems to be taking a definite "hands-off" approach to Middle-earth (at least in the Third Age), and short of sending the Istari, don't want to actively affect its outcome...

The most curious thing in the dream in my opinion is that Faramir sees it many (damn my memory) times and Boromir just once. The fact has always intrigued me. Maybe Faramir was more sensitive to the message? And did that actually hint that he should have been the one to go to Rivendell?
