The problem I see is to make sure that there is always a separator, even when a 
field empty:

rm zlib.c; git ls-file --eol #will include a line like this:
i/text-lf       w/              attr/          zlib.c

or, as another example:
git ls-files -o --eol
i/              w/binary        attr/          zlib.o


And if there is no separator, it is harder to make it machine-parsable,
if we e.g. extend the attributes to support "*text=autocrlf", or 
"*.text=autoinput"
(But that is another story)

If we replace "/[-a-z]" with "\t", the line has always a separator,
but needs a somewhat wider screen:
        text-lf         text-lf                   zlib.c
