Even with the open source nvidia kernel module (src:nvidia-open-gpu-kernel-modules in contrib) the gsp firmware is (currently) only useful with nvidia driver components from non-free, so there is no point in moving the firmware to non-free-firmware. In case nouveau is going to use the gsp firmware at some point (as Luca mentioned), it will probably have different version constraints than the proprietary driver and will likely require separate packages (which could be in non-free-firmware).
