I wonder where that came from.

"native" happens to be nonarbitrary; Gnus really recognizes it as the
name of the primary server, so "native:group.name" is a valid FQGN.
But I think it's better to use the "backend+address:group.name"
scheme.  That's the only way to qualify names of groups on secondary
servers, and we don't really need another naming scheme that works on
only some servers.
