"But if the pedal should pop up and suck air up past the 'T' in the line then you have more calipers to bleed later."

If the pedal is 1" down to block the flow from the reservoir, and it pops up (say the stick gets loose) I think the only direction the fluid will flow is toward the brakes as the master's seal clears the opening to the reservoir. For a rear caliper, I think the closest junction with any other member of the circuit is at the octopus, directly below the master.
