I'm not sure it would make a difference. Stability and steering feel have more to do with the geometry of the steering knuckles- caster, camber, offset, toe-in, etc. Velomobiles tend to have center-stick steering in order to keep the body shell narrow and the hands from interfering with the wheel wells. Un-shelled trikes can have the steering handles virtually anywhere.
The exception would be the Borealis velomobile, which is a shell placed on an ICE trike chassis:
