Default Dryer Vent: Window Well Covers...

Greetings gurus...

I've a dryer I am installing directly in front of a basement window.
That window has a window well cover (http://www.idealtruevalue.com/
servlet/the-9069/Detail). I had planned on taking out one of the
panes of glass in the window and constructing a vent. Of course, this
vent would exhaust into the well and cover.

Should I be concerned about condensation and the general integrity of
this idea...? Would it be better to go through a beam (wood, cedar
shingles) a construct a dedicated vent (rather than using window)...?

Many thanks in advance for ideas...
