I don't think Gnus should support these by default, as they are probably only of interest to Babylon 5 fans. For situations like this, it would be nice if there was a well documented way to add new digest types to Gnus. `nndoc-type-alist' almost provides this, with two exceptions: 1) It should be documented (although it seems pretty straight-forward). 2) Each digest type description should contain a function that returns non-nil if the current buffer is a digest of that type. This would avoid the hard-coding of the digest types in `nndoc-guess-digest-type'.
