After Deactivating a Forced Activation

Would it be worthwhile to record that an activation was forced so we can alert the user to run rev-upgrade after the second package is deactivated?

A forced activation of a second package may not break the original package, so the user may forget about the damage done and the inevitable cause of the first package not working after deactivation of the second package. This simple reminder to run rev-upgrade should help an unaware user fix the issue before experiencing the unexpected outcomes.
