For pure gravity bleeding you don't need to touch the pedal, but a
few pedal strokes can help fill up the MC, which speeds things up a
bit.
If I've got a completely clean system that I've just put back
together, I'll do a few pedal strokes and then proceed to start
cleaning up my tools while the fluid makes its way to the RR wheel.
Just take a look at the bleed tube occasionally and take advantage of
the time.
