I'd say that all must-be-readable-from-DOS/Win files have DOS EOLs. This would
include READMEs, and e.g. dselect and cfdisk manpages. We _do_ ask first-time
users to read those, after all. Other ASCII files (like HTML files) can just
keep their UX EOLs.

Agreed. Otherwise Win* users have to specify a viewer themselves. If we can
easily save them that effort, then we should.
