Well, I have a shared repository, where I set the attribute.  Now, every 
once in a while, people check in text _with_ CR/LF.  Yes, that is right, I 
marked it explicitely as crlf, yet I am on the whim of the people choosing 
to set the config variable or not.

And I could not care less what the documentation says: if it does not make 
sense, it does not make sense.

Nope.  "heeded" is what I meant.  I am not a native speaker, so this could 
be wrong.  But "needed" is not what I meant (the sentence would not make 
sense with "needed").
