Of course it can; it's just a matter of writing the respective hooks. What we *can* do in any case is to check for UTF-8 "BOMs" server-side in the whitespace checking hook. > I know now that I could always edit with IDLE's editor, but it is a lot > easier to right click and select edit than it is to run thru the > directory tree in an open dialog.

It should show up as an invisible change in the first line of a file when you look at a "svn diff". (It is a very good practice to look at a diff before committing anyway.)
