Perhaps I have not understood what you want, but the emphasized portion of your comment above is what draws my attention.

E-books are considered to be reflowable text, changing placement based on font size, margins, and other factors. Therefore newlines are not needed except at the end of a paragraph. Under optimal layout there should not be any kind of positional or stylistic data included within the book's content. So no spaces or tabs, no blank lines, no heading size and spacing, etc should be included.

These items should be in a CSS stylesheet which would have to be added to the ebook (since text files don't have any markup associated with them). You could generate a single CSS stylesheet and re-use it for all your books. You would have to add the necessary markup to the body (text) of the ebook, which shouldn't be much more complex than writing a forum message with bbcode included since your needs are minimal.

You could try using Sigil to edit the files to produce what you want. Sigil can be found here on MobileRead.
