Neither is it for me. As I said, if people want to go with something 
else than -crlf on files that we would prefer to be CRLF'd always, I'm 
fine with it. We're only playing for safety on those, and assuming that 
we might get issues if someone ever gets an LF'd file that should have 
been CRLF'd.

But what I have an objection to is not enforcing files that should 
always be LF as LF, when I have seen 3 *separate* issues on not doing 
that, and the other proposal is *rely* on users following what we tell 
them to, while we can just do that for them by using binary mode always.
