Unless Kishimoto himself makes them canon(like with manga versions of Kiba and Raiga), fillers are not canon and thus don't really matter in the end. One would argue that the Kakashi ANBU would kinda fall under "canon-filler" as what happened is "canon", but the events that took place are "filler", but I get what you're saying >.<
