I have no clue what a package is supposed to do but any solution has to come

I think the point is that often in German, breakpoints for hyphenation
also break ligatures. I mentioned that in Nasbinals.
Best,

The guts of the selnolig package just call \hyphenation{...}:

The interesting part for ligatures is in the patterns file
http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/CTAN/macros/luatex/latex/selnolig/selnolig-english-patterns.sty
http://anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk/mirrors/CTAN/macros/luatex/latex/selnolig/selnolig-german-patterns.sty
By using patterns they don't need a very huge word list, I think.
If patterns were the solution then making better pattern files would be
the solution ... anyway, i just see a list of what are basically
exceptions.
So just for the fun of it i'll add {} as shortcut for \zwnj
\replaceword[more][shiffling] [shiff{}ling]
and this already was there
\replaceword[more][shiffling] [shiffling]
to prevent messing with something but i'll add an equivalent
\replaceword[more][shiffling] [{shiffling}]
variant (more explicit). The already existing replacement mechanism is
good enough for this purpose and if needed we can always ship some lists.
