feature reqest: need global option eol-style

what is my problem:
 i have used sources (fpc) which has different types eol-style in different releases. due to this i have to set property svn:eol-style for each file in release. but release has more than 4000 files. i try to use auto-props, but some files is binary, some - text. TortoisSVN detection algoritm works properly about detection binaries but if confuses with auto-property of svn:eol-style -it go an error during import. 
 another thing - if i want to go to another eol-style from current, i have to change eol-style property for each file. but i have to do this manualy because some files are binaries.
 
what i want:
 i guess it useful to provide global option eol-style (like in WinCVS gui) or provide such property for directory trees, so that this prop works only for text files and ignore binaries.

When it's mime-type is a textual type ;)

But from a computer stance, there's a problem with your request: all
files are binary to computers. Some just are given a textual
interpretation by humans...

So when's a file non-binary?

Bye,

Erik.
