Assuming you won't need to plug in a USB drive all of the sudden and you keep a spotless fstab and have a sole eth connection, hotplug might in fact be somewhat useless to you.
I switched to udev ages ago however; find out if it's really ncessary.
In the end of the day however, it's not like it's a very heavy process for your machine.

Should I emerge hotplug and coldplug on my hosted server when
upgrading to udev? I don't think there are any attached devices.
However, the docs do say:
hotplug also handles the automated bringup of network devices and
firmware downloading.
