Its been validated that the NS has active cooling. What is not known is when this cooling is activated. It makes sense that it may not be required/activated during portable play as that would put a drain on the battery. The vent is also at the top of the device so it won't be impeded by the dock.
Its very much possible that when docked, the NS will be overclocked to allow 1080p display to the TV and active cooling is kicked on. This would allow the dock to be a very in expensive part of the base bundle and meet the statements Nintendo has made that its primary purpose is just for power/connectors.
