Good point.  Yes, nndraft runs the auto-save on a modified draft
with a certain period.  Prompting a user for a modified draft is
a normal operation of `kill-buffer', not Gnus' intention.  So we
may kill those buffers safely and silently.

Thanks Eric for suggestions and verifying a revised patch.  I've
committed it in master:
<http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-diffs/2017-05/msg00237.html>

Where `do-auto-save' makes sure that latest drafts are saved.
(set-buffer-modified-p nil) is necessary to kill modified buffers
silently.
(setq kill-buffer-hook nil) assumes that a user might set it for
a certain purpose (I do it ;-), that might issue a useless prompt.
