I personally would be embarrased for anyone to see wire hanging out of a compartment and pinched by a door. When I install equipment for my marine customers, they expect no less than it look like a factory installation and I spend a lot of time removing panels, etc. so I can hide wiring and hoses. I also demand the same of myself for my personal installations. It comes down to how you are going to feel everytime you walk by it and look at it.
To me, a minimal installation would be to come up through the floor witha hole just large enough to accomodate the wire, seal the hole with a little silicone and use some cable clamps to hold the wiring in place.
