Setting autocrlf for every repository limits the user's options to
override the default.

Then maybe a way for the user to override the global templates is what we 
need?  I can see that this would be useful outside of the crlf issue.

I do not think we need this.  autocrlf is a configurable variable and we
already have a mechanism for the user to override configuration
variables.  The user can use "git config --global ..." to sets his
preferences.  This mechanism is well established.  I do not see a reason
not to use it.
