* nvidia-kernel-dkms: Switch to Recommends: nvidia-driver | libcuda1
  to break the chain libcuda1 -> nvidia-kernel-dkms -> nvidia-driver.
#768185
suggests that nvidia-opencl-icd works without the graphics side (can
someone check that?), making this the more correct place to cut the chain.

Sorry, that may not be such a good idea. #768185 says Nvidia OpenCL + Intel graphics can coexist; it says nothing about what would happen to an Nvidia-hardware-only system with nvidia kernel module (which blacklists the nouveau kernel module) + nouveau graphics userspace, which under the above would be the result of trying to install OpenCL on a previously nouveau-using system.

That leaves the options of cutting nvidia-opencl-icd -> libcuda1 and accepting broken OpenCL as less bad than broken graphics, or making the libgl1-nvidia-glx.preinst.in "do you really want to install this?" warning trigger on non-Nvidia hardware.
