Yes.
Imagine you have a release train to do for a product based on several projects 
with various versions.
Your product is composed of 2 projects B which depends on A, both of them are 
in SNAPSHOT
Either you release A, you update B to use A released version, and you release B
Either you ask to release plugin to update B deps and release it.

(For me the main problem is often that if you need to release each time all 
projects at the same time, probably it should be a unique project)
