Sadly, this is not an argument for my scheme. As long as the conversion
property is on (or "native", as I presented it), Subversion will have
already helpfully switched all the line endings, so they'll be
flip-flopped on commit even if everyone is using decent editors.

(Of course, if we get to a point where everyone has decent editors,
people won't need to set the property any more, and *then* there won't
be flip-flopping.)
