Hmm... actually I would expect accuracy should always be preserved.  
Strictly speaking the accuracy should depend on the zoom level when the co-ordinates are set.  If you set the position at the max zoom out level you are not setting the position to an accuracy of five decimal digits, maybe one or two.  (since even a click to a single pixel might not correspond to location up to a metre, most users might click within a 10 or 50 pixel radius of actual desired location).  Best would be if such considerations are taken into account.
Of course it might be a different subject from the one posted here.
