No. What would it help?

"autocrlf" on Windows actually helps you (big upside, very small 
downside). On Unix or other sane systems, it has zero upside, so while the 
risk is still very small, there is now no big upside to counteract it.

Again, what is "default" supposed to be? I argue that it's supposed to be 
the thing that is right for 99.9% of all people. And that simply isn't 
true on Unix.
