(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

Like Andreas pointed out, we can't really do the RAWFILE thing, because
that would mess up the file.  I don't think we can bind `find-file-hook'
to nil, either -- the user may well want to do things to the file in
this case, too.

So I'm closing this bug report.
