Hello, 

I want to throw in my 2 cents, too.

I don't see why fossil shouldn't provide any facility to run files through a 
filter or preprocessor before checkin, after check out and maybe there are 
other actions when running a file through a filter is useful or necessary.

When a developer uses this filter for converting line endings, let her do so. 
Maybe someone wants to indent source files before checkin. 
There are many cases where it makes sense to the developer.
