Someone might correct me, but my best guess for default move_base is: They are totally independent.
In other words: Both must be setup correctly, matching one each other. In particular move_base doesn't assume the robot configuration to change, i.e. the footprint is constant.
There are some move_base planner implementations that actually take the 3D environment and robot configuration into account.
