Would be great if phtoshop would allow to create styles from filters and editds applied to a smart object. Would make Styles actually usable and helpfull. Also would help to get rid of lots of tedious routine

Marking a Feature Request as such would make it »actually usable and helpful«.
What »routine« are you talking about?
Which edits are you likely to apply to a Smart Object aside from the Smart Filters?
Have you considered using Scripts or Actions to automate those tasks?

I marked my post an "idea" . Isn't it basically a feature request or I should do it somewhere else?
Edits are levels, invert, match color end so on. For example I'd like a "style" that turns 16 bit height image into a notrmal map. That works only in 32 bit mode properly and needs emboss, levels and gamma fix separatly for red and green channel ( the blue I don;t need) .
Scripts and Actions are cool but takes time sometimes. Not very convenient to manage . I don't know how to write scripts really. The actions often is a mess that takes too much time to debug . I'd like something like a subgraph in Substance Designer saved as a Style within a nice Style panel and working live over a a group stack of height representing layers. An ideal solution weould be just support of "filters" done in Substance Designer probably but my guess it will never happen.

Are you sure? Because it’s listed as »discussion« (see screenshot).
Match Color? Does that even work as a Smart Filter?
Scripts and Actions are cool but takes time sometimes. Not very convenient to manage .
Do you mean they take time to create or to run?
The management probably depends on how well you organize them.
For edits that can actually be performed as/with Smart Filters (which can include Adjustments like Levels, Curves, …) you could also set up a template file and use »Replace Contents« to switch in new imagery or drag&drop the Smart Filters.

Yeah, I thought I marked the idea dot . But now have no idea how to check it. Or even how to edit posts here.
Agree , the proper organisation of actions is evrything , something I sometimes miss . But the styles panel is an organisation by itself and a convenient one . The styles could be done through actions too . So why not extend it to smart objects with smart filters and edits layers. I alredy have so many actions , half of them outdated and not working. So for many things being just withing Style palette would be a nice convenience IMO.
As of color match I meant color transfer neural filter. The only AI feature I found useful to somewhat limited scale.
Thanks for the template idea. Woudl be nice Photoshop had "Assets" panel from Affinity Photo where we could keep such things for quick access. I tried library thing but it doesn't keep smart filters or something.
