Nope, if you have the rear brakes adjusted properly once to the 1/3 turn before you adjust the cable length then you don't need to deal with the cable length again.

  And we should also un-adjust prior to new brakes?

    Once the rear is properly adjusted to 1/3rd of a turn 'til tight (as previously described and agreed upon by most or all I
    think) if the hand lever is still loose (say >10 clicks) THEN adjust the hand lever nut. However don't use the lever to adjust out
    the slack that should be handled caliper-side.
