#2 - Would I need to line the insides of the cabinet section with anything?
#3 - Would having humidity inside warp the dresser significantly?
#4 - What would be a good humidification device to put inside of it?
Thanks for any help or suggestions!

These answers to my knowledge. I am no expert!
1- you want it sealed, no air flow. None.
2- traditional lining is Spanish cedar. It helps regulate the humidity environment.
3- I don't think there would be enough moisture to damage the unit.
4- get beads. I recommend shilala beads from cigarnut on this forum.
5- did I mention GET BEADS! ....Good luck.
