Is there any security issue coupled to this subject. I think as long as
the PHP interpreter make the right code from this files there should no
forcing of a special Lineend style. I don't think that in unix aren't
any editors, that can't handle windows linefeeds? If there's an
overwhelmiming pro for this, could there a conversion of lineends during
the package building process with PHP_Beautifier?

The "joe" editor doesn't handle them well, the one I use via ssh and
it's disggusting to find Win EOLs when need to generate a quick patch :)

Anyway we shouldn't put here too much (any?) efforts,
