we would go back and forth between our wheels all the time on the race bikes so the both rotors matched the same set of pads all the time. So no we wouldn't change pads when changing wheels.

Your using like 10-20% of your rear brakes power so a loss of 20% grip due to un-matching pads and rotors isn't going to be felt. This is even more true for when switching to rains where traction is reduced anyways.
