Right, but your files had line endings of one style or another. If the line
ending style happened to match the native line endings, they show as not
modified, correct? It's only when the actual line endings in the file are
not the native style that the file is marked modified, correct?

I think if a line ending actually in use does not match the line ending SVN
expects for that file, that marking it modified makes sense. But when you
commit I don't think it will actually change anything for anybody else,
since SVN will just modify the line endings anyway. So I can see the
argument either way.
