I retract this suggestion. On further investigation, bash currently does
not treat \r as an IFS whitespace character, and the hacks to the source
to make this happen are too invasive for my liking. Adding \r to IFS will
impact your script, but the impact is incomplete, and it does not ignore
\r at the end of all lines.
Sorry if this false path wasted your time. But a text mount is still
workable.
Maybe I'll look into adding a new shopt instead.
