Chuck,

Hassleblad used a bayonet mount filter system. Worked great!

Rollei TLRs

I do have a Tammy 28-200 with bayonet mount for a matching CU lens, but that's pretty obscure. I don't think they made filters for it. Pretty good lens. Available cheap if you want to experiment with making a bayonet mount filter holder.

But I have a question. How does this concept work with hoods? As I recall, my antique 'Cord offers one or the other, not both. I have a filter at hand, and there's no way to mount anything on the front of it. 'Fraid I don't know where the hood is at the moment, but I don't think a filter fit inside.

Lenses with bayonet hoods separate from and outside of filter threads could work. Those with screw-in hoods and those (mostly teles) with slide out hoods would seem problematic.

I'd rather give up filters than hoods. Well, I have, but for the v. occasional 
polarizer or 81A or C for high altitude.
