In the LaTeX output it would be nice to have the option to support Tikz. This is possible in plantuml and would give better typographic consistency.

I've had an initial stab at the thing and it works quite nicely I just can't figure out if theres a cleaner way to do it, lots is missing as well(width, height, scale), the branch is available here:
https://github.com/jackburridge/plantuml/tree/tikz

I do a direct write to body to use \input{} and also add tikz to the preamble
demo.pdf
demo.zip

Thanks, the change looks fine to me. It's simple and small.

Can you add a short # TODO: blah, blah... comment describing things should be cleaned up?

lots is missing as well(width, height, scale),

That should be fine since this is a new feature which breaks no existing use cases.
Unsupported options can be documented in README.
