It`s completely safe. Funny enough I had the same worries when I first did it.
Most people dont know this but when you reconnect it, go in to the car and PUSH UPWARDS on the sun roof electric switch (not back and not forwards, just up) and HOLD it for about 1 minute until the roof gives a quick movement. I dont know exactly what this does but I know it`s BMW`s official priming routine after a battery disconnection.

I usually go for a quick drive to reset lights. Forgot to mention your trip settings and time/date stuff will all be gone, along with consumption figures etc.
