    If it's on an outside wall, yes. Definitely help keep the plumbing from freezing.

    On an inside wall, I wouldn't bother. You'll just have hot shampoo.

    Of course, you'll find plenty of differences in opinion here.

    Very little

    if there is the usual 4" air space between the floor and vanity bottom.

    Yes it will help with pipe freezing, although it shouldn't be below freezing temperatures below your vanity if the outside walls are insulated properly :)

    Cutting a small forced air grill in the toe kick will release some of the "locked up" heat.
