True, back in the FD era, I had a 24mm f/2.8 SSC that used a 55mm
filter. I used a standard thickness polarizer and it never vignetted.
I'm wondering if this problem has to do with the fact that we tend to
use wide-angle zooms rather than prime lenses.

I think this is an oversimplification. Certainly the design of the front of
the lens housing (not the optics) has an impact upon whether or not a filter
of a particular thickness will cause vignetting. So while 28mm is 28mm, not
every 28mm lens will behave the same when it comes to filters.
Does this make sense to anyone else?
