In astronomical narrowband filters you not only need high transmission (ideally close to 100%) for a given emission line, but equally importantly you'll need very good out-of-band blocking since monochrome CCDs cover from about 300 - 1100 nm.

Otherwise very narrow FWHM offers no real advantage.

Just my five cents.
