I don't worry about residual oil in the cooler and lines. But, when I have put in the new oil, I pull all the sparkplugs and crank her over to get some pressure. To my mind, this reduces any potential problems with turning an engine over for those few seconds before pressure builds up.

I certainly would not start the engine before I knew I had bled out any air from the filter or lines.
