Yes its all very loosely approximated to real life anyway when avoiding the spectral level. Its not just the filter but also the quality of light being emitted/reflected from behind - A broad spectrum light like the sun will create more even effects while narrow spectrum lights like flourescent lamps or HPS street lamps can act variably. Looking through a yellow filter at a yellow flourescent light - you could easily see almost all the original light (bright yellow) or none (black) depending on the spectral transmission of the filter.
