Roll tank skin edges?

I know it's common practice to slightly break/roll the edge of most skins so that they lay flat after riveting, but what about skins that are screwed on? Should I do the same to the fuel tank skins, or is the fact that the pressure applied by screws is so much less than a rivet that it's not necessary?
