No, just make sure that you pick a good place to ground them, and make sure that it is a secure connection into bare metal.  I think it is better to use the same point, that way you reduce the risks of ground loops.

For sure, just make sure you're ground wires are the same gauge as your power wires, a lot of ppl neglegt that.

I typically use a wire one size bigger for my grounds...just to be sure there will be no grounding problems...
