Dani,
You're right, it has nothing to do with them, but Airbus felt the need to issue a Bulletin to clarify this codiing.
One example used by Airman 13 is FD. He says it means Fix to DME Arc. It is actually the (D) Database (F) FAF we're talking about here. No ARC involved.
C obviously is for Course. The track from that point to the FAF should be the same then the track from the FAF to the runway. It is a requirement to do a RNAV NAP.
M as in Missed Approach is correct. The D, as above.
These 3 points are in line on your ND and the next thing after point MD, according to Bagot's example, should be runway 34.
