The order in which 'ident' and 'crlf' are carried out is documented a few paragraphs
later again, after 'filter' was introduced.

	I don't have the tools to check whether the formatting is still correct.

The description was meant to emphasizes that the project should remain
usable even if the filter driver was not used. This makes it more explicit
