The dirt not affecting the front element makes sense in the way that you can make a wire fence invisible if you can get your lens close enough to it. (Like: when shooting zoo animals) I have always kept my lenses clean, and do not speak from experience when it comes to the effect of dirt on the glass. The inner element may have a greater effect. And there is always the dust on the sensor thing.
As far as filters: I keep a good quality UV/haze filter on at all times. Other filters as the needs arise. Looking in my filter collection, I seem to buy B+W brand the most....
