Yes, best practice is to explicitly declare all build-time dependencies that are not build-essential. So for example if the code uses Xlib calls directly, it is not enough to build-depend on libsdl-dev that depends on X, because libsdl-dev could be made not to depend on the backend some day. Though since the package builds in a clean chroot, it is at least likely to build correctly on buildds today. So it is not critical or anything.
