How to setup cygwin to use always textmode, Conclusion

Conclusion (please correct me if I'm not right):

- There is no way to select 'always textmode' in the current release of cygwin
- I've to make sure that filesystems are mounted correctly (see /etc/fstab)
  and that I name filenames correctly to get the right mode
- When I use windows filenames there is no way to get textmode like in older
  releases of cygwin

So is there a chance to get back the selection of textmode for files with 
windows filenames in future releases?
