It doesn't really cause any terrible pain for a double rebuild to
happen. devel@ being flooded with "I'm about to rebuild X!" would
certainly cause a lot more inconvenience.

 Right there is no harm. One can only bump the release and carry a rebuild without any change in spec. What I thought is that generally people whose packages gets soname bump used to carry package rebuilds for its dependent packages also. Same has already happened with libicu soname bump in the past. This time it was not clear if libicu maintainer is going for these package rebuilds or not.
  Anyway I assume libicu maintainer want to only push libicu update and let the dependent package owners to rebuild their packages. I have just rebuilt fontmatrix now.

Thanks,
Parag.
