How about gnus-news-group-p plus the group is non-local?
Non-local would mean not on the same net as the local box, so;
not 127/8, 10/8, 172.16/12, 192.168/16, etc. Unless, of course,
the lookup is also to a local network.
Hmm. A bit complicated. But it would likely be of more general use,
were Emacs able to deduce whether a given ip address is local or remote.
