Correct.

I'm not Doug, but I based on my experience with the transition (using
portmaster), I'd say that would be overkill: you don't need to
force-upgrade all installed ports merely because X.org was upgraded
(except in the rather special case that all installed ports are part of
or depend on parts of X.org).
When I did the upgrade, there was a problem with one of the input
drivers that the x11/xorg meta-port had brought in (but that I didn't
actually use); that was fixed within a couple of days, so if I were to
do the upgrade, I'd merely use
portmaster --index -ad
but you'll want to evaluate that compared to your normal practice and
proceed accordingly. (In my case, that's what I normally use to upgrade
ports, absent an applicable UPDATING entry directing other actions.)
Peace,
