    Otherwise just about everything in contrib has dependency on non-free
    software.

That makes it simple--put the contrib packages on the server that has
the non-free packages.

A few months ago, I think someone mentioned that some packages were in
contrib because their quality or utility was marginal, even though
they had no dependence on non-free software.  If that is true, those
might perhaps want to be moved into main but somehow labeled as
second-rate.
