Not really a solution as much as an alternative form of attack: Tools like graphviz where I can type certain limited types of diagrams into a text editor and xdot well instantly display the render.

There are also some online ones, although I'm not sure how well they work in a multi-editor situation.

Might not be flexible enough for a really open brainstorming, but enough for stuff like figuring out domain concepts.

I'm the same with:

PlantUML - quick and simple text representation of diagrams, really easy to iterate on and see changes reflected live.

reveal.js - Quick and simple slide creation, I can reorder slides with ease, tweak wording, don't waste time faffing about with fonts, text box sizing etc. All reflected live in a browser.
