I would imagine that the closer you can locate your wood stove to a window, the better. A window is just a fresh air vent, but one that isn't directly connected to the stove. Obviously a stove that pulled in cold outside air to combust it would be ideal, but a window several inches away would be pretty good, I suppose. But if there are a lot of cracks 'behind' your bed and you really get a strong fire going, that air is going to be pulled across you as you sleep!
Neat to hear people are doing it successfully. I'm sure its possible, and can probably be optimized for not a lot of extra time/money/hassle.
