It might make more sense to have the dissector for "raw IP" not put anything into the protocol tree, and just call the IPv4 or IPv6 dissector. It would mean that if a file format that supported multiple link layer types supported "raw IP", you couldn't filter directly for "raw IP" packets, but I'm not sure that'd matter.
