Ok, I've submitted a patch for luaotfload [also|instead]:

The example in the original message is reproducible with Plain LuaTeX
(without loading luaotfload), so the behaviour is a part of the engine,
but it could be considered as either a bug or a feature depending on
your viewpoint.

This issue is probably reproducible in MkIV, but given all the recent
changes in the fond bolding/slanting code in LMTX, I doubt that there
are any issues there.
