This Telerik's forum post answers, I think: http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/silverlight/maskedtextbox/is-it-possible-to-use-a-radmaskedtextinput-as-a-multiline-text-area.aspx#1863327

The RadMaskedInput controls don't support a "no-mask" scenarios at the moment...

This is why ... it would be best to take advantage of the RadMaskedTextBox control. It has a property MaskType, which you can set to None. Also in order to make it multi-line, you need to apply a custom style to its ExtendedTextBox element and set its AcceptsReturn property to True.
