Can you be more specific what do you find slow in UR? You must be really fast typing/thinking ... I really cannot imagine how could UR slow me down.
Plus, you can easily create empty txt file (or create many templated txt files) and put to Template directory. Then, you can have your whole UR file with plain txt items which would export as single txt file/per item exactly like you want

And you could still use it for those 5% rich text items, everything under one roof ...
