Well, one thng we could do is to add a new concept, namely

	core.autocrlf = warn

and make *that* the default.

It would do the check, but not actually convert anything, just warn about 
it.

Then, it's up to the user to set it explicitly to "true" or "false", 
unless they just like seeing that warning a million times ;)

That might be acceptable to most people.
