I'm not sure exactly what you mean by needing to change things in more than one place in this context, but regarding the common_filters feature, I think the code could be easily be changed to make it work whether or not a query is specified. In that case, the user wouldn't have to worry about forgetting anything -- the common_filter would just always work.
