Indeed, this is an inconsistency. The right way would be for org-gnus
(and other mail readers, like org-wl) to register the link type.

What syntax did you try? IIRC `org-gnus-follow-link' expects a /Gnus/
link in path, but RFC5538 ("The 'news' and 'nntp' URI Schemes ")[1] has a
different definition that must be normalized to a org-gnus.link.
I'll see to provide a patch to org-gnus.el to handle news: and nntp:
links according to the specs.
