I'll often do this if I'm using the same tool to rough and finish a feature. It gives the setter the option to resize and recut without re-running the roughing cycle again.
One caveat to be aware of, on the Fanuc posts at least. After the manual tool change, the post tends to omit the next H value from the program. Not a problem if you're running a machine that pre-loads H & D values on a tool change, a bit disastrous if you aren't.
