The vent pipe is there to aid system filling and also a safety feature should the boiler stat fail.
Can I vent a hot water cylinder to a different header tank?

Can if the coil goes in the cylinder and the header tank is higher than the storage tank. (water level)
That is correct, and it doesn't matter which tank it runs into.
Agreed it's not good practice and could cause problems for future plumber if they assume its from the heating etc.
