Not for everybody, I agree, but it is kinda of ironic that you mentioned "may be like an IETF proposal." :)

Also, technical blog posts, e.g.

  ASCIIFlow

Could have something a little more usable if you pasted into a tool like https://asciiflow.com/ and then copied your edits back into source.

Or an editor plugin with something like the automatic table formatting you get with emacs org-mode.

  Creates diagrams from textual descriptions!

  

My desktop text editor, KeenWrite[0], allows referencing variables within the main document text and figures. KeenWrite uses Kroki[1] to provide a wealth of diagram formats. In the screenshots[2], a Graphviz-based family tree is shown that uses character names sourced from an external YAML file. Those same variables can be used when writing prose. Change the variable in a single location and the family tree is updated and rendered immediately.

You can't do that with Google Docs, Lucid Chart, Word, OpenOffice, Scrivener, etc.
