[luatex] Doesn't hyphenationbounds work for first word of a paragraph?

When I compile this plain tex example with luatex:

\hsize=2em
abc \hbox to 1em{}sentence.

\hyphenationbounds=1
abc \hbox to 1em{}sentence. 

\noindent\hbox to 1em{}sentence.

\bye

then hyphenationbounds=1 suppresses the hyphenation for the first
"\hbox to 1em{}sentence." but not in the second case where the word
is at the start of a paragraph. 

Is this to be expected or a bug?

(This is LuaTeX, Version 1.0.4 (TeX Live 2017/W32TeX) )
