I just changed my alists to plists and it appears to work the same for
me as the alists did.

I agree, but until that happens, here's a patch to gnus.texi from 0.69 
that describes my hack. I've also removed the section with the list of 
possible keys since it was wrong and is probably too much trouble to
keep track of.  Since the actual list for a given version can be
(according to the doc string, anyway) be found in the default value
for gnus-buffer-configuration, I refer the reader to that.
