Yes and No. It depends on the tools (toolchains) we want to use.
As far as I can see from a abstract POV it should by simple for
math:: / since we already use/need LaTeX for PDF, for other tools
I have to look.

I general I think, we should not include Java into our toolchains
even if it is optional. Thats, why I won't vote for http://plantuml.com/

aafigure: has dependencies [1] to reportlab (which is IMO inapposite) and
PIL, which is outdated / and aafigure itself seems outdated [2].

seqdiag: requires blockdiag and this requires Pillow ... until here 
its seems not bad, but there is also some "optional" dependencies to 
ImageMagick and reportlab (both smells).

IMO a tool which generates SVG would be the best, I have to check
if I find some or if some of the above could used in this way.

For this I need time ;-) ... ATM I work in a custom project but
I hope I will find next week time to dig more deeper.
