I agree that “unusable” is not the proper word, it will install a lot of
dependencies and create a “nova” user[1]:
LANG=C apt-get -s install novnc
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

I think they are not required for noVNC but for noVNC with nova.

I was not aware of the “nova-VNC”, as a lot of other products use it[2].
My primary wish was to share the novnc integration[3] for all packages
and admins:
- move the nova stuffs (user creation), outside of novnc and
python-novnc, for example in something like nova-consoleproxy
- updates the dependencies in openstack packages if required
Does it sound ridiculous?
Regards.
