On first glance this might sound out of place here but in CA we have a private, non-profit organization called, California Real Estate Inspection Association , or CREIA.
The purpose is to set membership standards very high in the knowledge of all parts of building constructions. All new members have a Mentor who is extremely knowledgeable of building codes. If an inspector has a question he can call his mentor and get building and safety requirements. If there is such an organization in your area it would be a great place to a a very limited number of questions.
I personally don't think it is a big deal to do what you want to do, however, it isn't safe as you put it to us. For about $300 you can install a homemade Genturi type exhaust vent and a high volume low pressure exhaust system(a big ole fan in the roof, with a wet weather cover), that and leaving the door open will certainly make it safe.
Good luck with the project.
