Do we still really need to bump PORTREVISION of dependent ports when a library is updated?

poudriere(8) will detect the missing dependency and rebuild the package; pkg(8) will detect the missing library dependency and force update of the package.

Before I used poudriere(8) + pkg(8); portmaster(8) was able to rebuild dependent ports, I suppose this feature was not removed.

Is it not time to stop doing this?
