If you're using B&W rendering to JPEGs in-camera, lock the white balance to a single value and experiment. You have one basic B&W rendering curve for the output and filtering the light will produce results similar to doing it with B&W film.
If you're capturing RAW format and rendering to B&W in RAW or RGB processing, it's pretty much a waste of time. All you're doing is cutting sensitivity and reducing the amount of data you have to work, there's no real gain from doing that.
