Personally, I don't think it's a good suggestion:

1. A user might stumble on the command accidentally (that's what the
confirmation is for).

2. (define-key global-map [f5] 'revert-buffer-no-confirm)

is not that much shorter than

   (define-key global-map [f5] (lambda () (interactive) (revert-buffer t 
t)))
