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.
