The thing that creeped me out the most was the idea of sharpening something just before I went to sleep and awakening to smoke detectors going off due to a smoldering fire started in the dust collector. I suspect that is less of an issue in a shop vac especially a metal one, but I'd rather be safe than really sorry.
The shop vac thing helps a lot, but they blow out more or less unfiltered air equal to the CFM of their input. It's probably not much of an issue with infrequent sharpening but if you do a lot of it it might be. I really don't know what I'm talking about but that's the premise I went with.
