The point is: if we use /etc/gitconfig, we also touch _existing_ 
setups (as Junio pointed out).  Which, in the case of autocrlf, is not 
desirable.

I proposed a mechanism that would avoid such problems in the future.

Yes, but your solution feels a bit limited and "hot-needled" for just one 
purpose.

What limits do you mean (except that it does still break existing
msysgit setups; but would avoid this problem in the future)?
