Create a parent filter matching all messages and make your common
filters subfilters of this catch-all-filter. Make sure "Continue
processing with other filters" is ticked for the parent filter.

When a filter matches, TB! should stop processing filters within the
same sub filter group but continue through other filters below the
parent filter. I have not tested this with common filters, but it works
with account level filters and it seems to be exactly what you want.
