People who use RAW tables in IDS should presumably have read the notes about the risks. If the notes aren't clear enough, then the IDS doco team should put a stern warning in there. The raw table feature is a very interesting way to split off dangerous activity from the strong safety of "normal" IDS functioning. [reply to Tim will take a bit more thought...]
