YASim doesn't care, actually. It reports the output lat/lon/alt value as the location of the coordinate origin of the airframe (that is, the 0,0,0 referenced by all the coordinates it finds in the aircraft definition file). I've always suggested the nose as an obvious and hard-to-mistake location, but there's nothing in code to enforce that. If the aircraft lacks a well-defined nose, then we can pick something else; the only requirement is that all the FDM configurations and 3D models for a single aircraft agree. There's not need to unify conventions for across all possible aircraft.
