Depending on the component, the filters available are inconsistently ordered.
Please could you point out which ones are not consistent. They should be as I spent quite a lot of time ensuring that the order of the filters matched the order of the columns

They are consistent with the columns in most cases (though I think maybe not with workflows enabled), but they are not consistent with each other:
One of the questions I raised above is that since the filters follow column order, the columns are ordered inconsistently across components too when compared to each other. Should they be more consistent? I don't know the answer, just keeping track of the different things we're looking at as a team right now. :)

Problem we're trying to solve:
Depending on the component, the filters available are inconsistently ordered. This leads to frustration both for experienced users and new users, because one must look carefully which filter they need before selecting. They are also inflexible (it's not possible to filter by multiple categories, for example).
Possible solutions include:
