I fell out of the habit of using Stationary, but I might have to start 
using them again.

I would be careful though - it seems like some settings aren't saved when 
you save a document as a stationary. (For example, Show Invisibles). What I 
would do, if these settings are important to you is to use Edit -> Insert 
-> Emacs Variable Block and save the stationary with the variable block.

This is especially useful if you work in a team of people and want to 
enforce consistent line  endings across you team, as most editors respect 
those settings. (Maybe you're in a white space sensitive language where 
that matters, or you're one of those people that care)

I talk about using Emacs Variables in an article on the BBEdit hints blog:

Hope this helps!
