You haven't been reading the blog posts on bloom filters. Or maybe you're saying they're not sensible, in which case I agree.

Haven't been reading is definitely true. Not sensible sounds like the case.
If you're using a cryptographic hash, your method clearly works. If you're using a fast and crappy hash function, you might need more care. But I suspect not.
As always, test with your real-world data. If it does what you need it to, theoretical qualms are likely irrelevant.
