Assuming they remember to do that.

This is not true if you fix eol-style to LF.  One could simply "svn
switch" to the release tag.  Assuming the project has a sane build
system, you could then do a clean build with identical results as "svn
export", without having to remember to force it to use LF every time
you do a release.
