I've heard very good things about draw.io.  I agree with your
assessment that having a graphical diagramming tool would be useful.
draw.io being FOSS is a big plus for it as well — I think it's
desirable that contributing to Spectrum does not depend on proprietary
software.

One question about draw.io: is there a tool we could use in the build
process of our documentation to render the .drawio files to SVG, so we
don't have to check in the SVG files?
