Comment:
If browsers generally send CRLF and we want to normalize, shouldn't we
normalize to CRLF — even if our personal tastes are different — to avoid
creating regressions for Windows users? For instance if they're building
text files from user input, suddenly their files may not display correctly
any longer.
Generally speaking, Django is very careful about not altering data sent by
the browsers. For instance it doesn't strip whitespace, even though it's a
very common request, and it's the right thing to do 99% of the time.
