Parity team would rule the world if parity-bitcoin supports Bitcoin Gold and Bitcoin Platinum.

About Bitcoin Gold: Bitcoin Gold is a hardfork of bitcoin with a change of pow algorithm to equihash - same algorithm as Zcash. It has implemented SIGHASH_FORKID features used from Bitcoin Cash in order to protect 2-way replay attack. The homepage is here: http://btcgpu.org. Twitter: https://twitter.com/bitcoingold

Plus) Some of the source codes are not publicly opened unless they release the main-net.
When they open the main-net, we could start the project!

I don't think that support for yet another bitcoin fork is anywhere on our roadmap. Personally, I also see no reason to support it, but if someone makes a non-intrusive pr, I will consider merging it.
