Hello,

Now that ":results drawer" has been introduced, I wonder why we still have
":results raw".

As once stated in this ML:

     The sole purpose of raw results is to allow inserting an headline (I mean
     a real headline, not comma protected) in the buffer, because headlines
     cannot be contained in anything else than headlines.

But drawer does the same. And drawer results can be replaced upon re-execution
(unlike raw).

So, is there still a use case for raw?

Best regards,
  Seb

PS- I could imagine that there would be a real use case if, for example, raw
did not allow "cycling" on the (tabular) results, while drawer would. But it's
not the case.
