By "really want to revert the buffer" do you mean "explicitly revert
the buffer (via `M-x' or the menu bar File menu)"?

If so:

(defadvice revert-buffer (around query activate)
  "Always query when invoked by the user."
  (let ((revert-without-query (if (interactive-p)
                                  nil
                                revert-without-query)))
    ad-do-it))
