I suspected as much - this should probably go in the password policy
section of the documentation as there are all sorts of recommendations
flying round the Web for setting pam_password to "exop" to allow
password changes to work properly. It does indeed work but as you say,
it bypasses all password policies (except global ones it seems).

  
I didn't mean to imply that it's intentional or that it should be this way, just giving you a hand with the analysis.  I have some changes around this area of password policy that aren't committed and might complicate a potential fix, I've filed a bug for you to keep track:
