The fact that it pulls libasound2 and libpulse0 is not the end of the world,
but it would be nice to be able to install povray without them. Similarly
without x11 dependencies pulled via libsdl1.2debian.

It would be nice to be able to maybe have povray-headless, that doesn't include
sdl, x11 or audio output support?

Similar to gnuplut-nox package is doing.

Best regards,
Witold
