Oh, absolutely it is.

What his method allows is to mark some files in a project as "these
should be the native EOL style" and others as "these should be left

But that's what a .gitconfig would too. We _already_ have that 
.gitattribute thing to then distinguish particular pathname rules. It's 
just that currently .git/config is needed to _enable_ it.
