Has anyone tried adding a filter holder to lens adapters?

Re: Been there, done that. It is a great idea.

I think it is a great idea, though it seems like it some of it would depend on the type of filter. For example it seems certain filters like dichroic filters or dichroic polarizers even dispersion type filters, it would be better to have them on the front of the lens, because of the angle of incidence, and the fact that they are also mirrors that reflect light, which you probably don't want bouncing around.

Also solar filters, you absolutely must have those on the front of the lens.
