Thanks Jens,

I've just implemented a different solution as I since found that CIFilter 
instance on iOS has a name read only property which I hadn't noticed.

So instead I've replaced the array of filters in my filter chain object with an 
array of dictionaries. Each dictionary has a name and a filter attribute. This 
way I get the behaviour I need and it works for both iOS and OS X. Nothing 
clever about it but it's nice having a common solution for both.
