There is no way to do that, because you will never know if filters changed the data or not. The reason we don't return a C-L, is that we don't have all of the data, so we can't computer the C-L. There is a possibility that we could fix this, with a hack. Basically, have the C-L filter check to see if the only bucket is a socket bucket or a pipe bucket. If so, leave the C-L alone. We can be sure that the data hasn't been changed in that case. If the only bucket is any other type, we will automagically compute the C-L.
