Not really .... I've got passband tuning and/or IF shift on the IC-746 
(pair of 400Hz filters) and had it on the IC-765 (pair of 500Hz and pair of 
250Hz filters).  Rarely ever used on either.
My K2/100 is set up for 1800, 700, 400, 100 ..... 1800 for traffic 
nets.  700 for CQing, 400 when the nastier QRM moves in.  Don't often use 
the 100, even though has minimal attenuation.

Although it doesn't work for everyone, but one of the best CW filters is 
between your ears (IMHO)
