Is it a reason to add a new variable instead of using trust_executable_bit?
And if so, why its default value is different? I know that this default does
not matter usually, because core.filemode is always stored in .git/config,
but still I don't like this discrapency.

Otherwise, I don't have any objection to this patch.
