I run my down to fumes routinely, to the point where the OBC stops displaying the range and the needle is below zero - most tanks for the last 50,000 miles (now on over 120,000) and I rarely even put half a tank in, so it happens a lot. Needless to say, haven't had any problems.
Not saying it couldn't cause a problem. But based on doing it over and over and over and not having a problem, I would suggest occasionally running it down is a total non issue.
