the first pass not being hyphenated has not to be documented as it's 
standard tex behaviour (however, ignoring category 1-3 dics nodes in 
pass one is, see a previous mail to you/taco, although that can become 
optional)

concerning comparison with pdftex: as luatex separates the hyphenating, 
ligaturing and kerning passes (and needs no reconstruction mechanisms 
when unboxing and re-breaking is involved) there will always be some 
incompatibilities, and these are mentioned in the manual
