I don't think that's a good idea. I want the test suite to be explicit and use
the exact representation as far as possible. It also makes us be able to test
with CR-only, LF-only and CRLF etc in test cases without problems.

So, I rather have us especially mark the sections that need to be treated as
"text" by Windows systems so that we keep that for only the sections we need
to do it for.
