GeoNode's own upload form currently only handles Shapefiles and GeoTIFF
files. However, there is a script included with GeoNode which will allow
you to import all layers in GeoServer (regardless of their origin) into
GeoNode so that you can use GeoNode's security/styling/etc features with it.
This should work for non-georeferenced datasources as well, to an extent.
But GeoNode currently expects to be able to overlay layers on a world-wide
base map, so you may have some visual artifacts, see nonsensical download
links, etc. if you have data without a geometry in your geoserver.
