Thanks Ted.

You mean choosing a different editor to be used inside Visual Studio? I
didn't even know it was possible, I personally stay well away from
Windows if I can.

Unfortunately I don't think my company would be keen to "force"
developers to use a 3rd party editor. And also I would like to find a
more robust solution, if there is one, which doesn't rely on developers'
choices.

Have you considered using a 3rd party editor with VisualStudio? The 
VisualStudio editor kinda sux. I know Emacs can handle this situation 
(it detects the line ending style when the file is loaded, and uses 
that). I don't know about others like CodeWrite, but any other serious 
programmers editor should support most of Emacs's text editing features 
(or they should have bagged the whole effort and repackaged emacs).

NTemacs is available at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/windows/, and the 
VisualStudio addin I use is at
