Why don't we do it the other way around? I mean, enable "Rich Text" by default and give the power users the option to write in Plain Text.

To be honest, nowadays 99% of users expect the email client to be able to handle <b> or <a> tags without actually having to write them (I think it's called WYSIWYG "what you see is what you get" or something like that).
