Are you using "share" because sync'd files are indeed shared between, 
say, Windows and Unix? We've stuck with the default "local" and don't 
mix Windows and Unix workspaces, and we've been fine.

You could write a script to look at all the clients on a periodic basis 
and just check to see what "LineEnd:" is set to. Or use a form trigger 
and check LineEnd whenever a user edits a client form.

It would be nice if there were some way to set a default client 
template; then you could make the defaults be what you want. 
Unfortunately, I don't see such a thing, but maybe I am missing something.
