This. Every other brick missing from the bottom row or two and a gap at the top so the warm air flows up through the gap.
Maybe nothing would happen, but look at the potential downside if something does. I once had a wood stove (not an insert, but an old stove) plumbed into a brick fireplace in an older house. It was in a fireplace designed for wood burning, on a hearth, etc. I had a big piece of wood that didn't get split small enough and I set it off to the side, well over a foot and a half away from the stove. That piece of wood stayed cool enough to touch, but it looked kinda rustic and my wife decided she liked it sitting there.
