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
