I'm not sure that it is an issue. If the lat and long can be extracted in the way that Nomination can handle it isn't an issue.
The bigger issue at the moment is how do you extract the lat and long easily? Downloading a bit of OSM into JOSM, saving the file as .XML then using something like notepad++ to manually extract the values isn't a very practical way for nonmappers to extract the values.
