A very tiny upgrade could be the following:

When one has selected "chose location to import from the clipboard" (Win+V), it would be helpful to add a button with "OK text only". You could add also a new shortcut to make import text only even when the location is not ticked (using for instance Win+B).

You have already this feature if you ticked in Options/Import "Prefer text/rich text clipboard formats". But the preference is not ready available.

Make it so, would avoid the waiting time to import from the web that sometimes occures, when we are only interested in text contents. In some cases (try for instance with google web site) that time si very long indeed!!!

If I may say Webcollect from mybase program is really great in this respect. If only UR could somewhat imitate it.

It would be also great to have the Source of the window from where it is copied the import content in those cases in which the import does not came from the web browser. For instance: if I copy from a PDF file a bit of text, it would be nice to have written as source in the attributes (or at the bottom of the import as in onenote) the name of the PDF window, that appears in the PDF Reader (Adobe, or whatever). This can now be produced with a roundabout coding using AutoHotkeys (Win+C copies the selection and the active window name at the bottom. Then one proceeds with Win+V).
