Has anyone tried adding a filter holder to lens adapters?

I'd not seen those before.

Unfortunately the range of filter types is limited to ND filters & one or two others, and it only works on one fairly expensive adapter that can be used with one of my cameras (less than 1% of my lenses fit this direct and none are compatible with the AF function).

There are a couple on companies doing clip in filters direct to the body, which while more expensive work with practically any lens/adapter. I've yet to find an adapter that doesn't work with the STC clip in filters... (Even c-mount ones are OK).
