My old workaround (for 3DS and OBJ) has been to place a small "dummy" object at the 0,0,0 point to use as a reference and always export both of them. You could make it a 2D Plane so that it does not show in Elevs/Sections and you could either assign a White Pen for the Reference Plane (so you can see it and it won't print) or edit the 2D GSM and erase it.

- Importing as lcf seems to be a better solution as it doesn't have a 'center point' problem and it can be updated via Rhino LCF Observer. The only big problem is that AC doesn't allow a linked lcf to be changed while running. And it is very frustrating and time consuming having to close AC every time you need to export Rhino geometry. It just ruins the whole concept.
