Have you reported a bug about this?
You might also get in touch with the maintainer of `nbd-client-udeb`
since that package seems designed for your use case, so if it doesn't
work well enough, they might like to know.

But contacting the maintainer of the nbd-client seems to be a good idea.
I will do that. Thanks.
So I have contacted the maintainer of nbd-client and have a little
follow up:
1. apparently, the Debian installer can be used with the option
"modules=partman-nbd" (documented in
/usr/share/doc/nbd-client/README.Debian.gz), which should allow
partitioning and installation on an nbd
2. for the nbd-client binary used in initrd images - I have submitted a
bug: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1036539
