It doesn't hurt. The person on the receiving end knows that you assume they are going to do whatever it is you are asking anyway or you wouldn't be asking/requesting it. By saying thank you...or thank you in advance for your efforts, for your cooperation, for your time....etc.... you let them know that you aren't trying to take advantage of them...and that you do appreciate their time and input.

Absolutely - it's also a way of ensuring it gets attended to promptly. If someone has to contribute to any work you do, its your responsibility that it is returned in time and that any amendments or rectifications are done before your own deadline. I usually attach a read receipt and say "Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this matter. Please advise me if there is anything else I can provide you with." Or something along those lines.

There are very few times in life where it is not good to be polite. Saying "thank you" after a request for a job to be done seems like simple common courtesy to me.

You could say:
"Thank you for taking this under consideration"
"Thank you for your time and consideration regarding this matter."
"Thank you for your forthcoming response."
Or basically for anything you assume they must have done by reading the letter; and with perhaps a hint of what you would like them to do. If you're very bold the third one works.

Nothing to lose by saying thanks. I look at it as a way of convincing the recipient that I look forward to having my request done.
