Glen,
This doesn't apply when the filter is positioned in front of the objective.
The surface quality (flatness) could be an issue - yes some of these filters are "photographic quality" but still can give grief when imaging pinpoint star images.
The chromatic correction of the lens may be good, and not give rise to the blue/ red bloat normally associated with wavelengths beyond the usual UV/IR cut off.
