Concerning SD and RAW, it's partly incorrect :
no writer has problem to use RAW, it is mandatory for them to be called CD-Writers (build Frames F1/2/3). The only trouble is that some don't accept to write RAW coming for a SW, because they firmware was made to calculate EFM, ...
Of course, since there is an economical interrest for CD writer manufacturers to produce a firmware able to write RAW for SW because of SD+CCD|BlindWrite...
Or to multiplex subchannel data from SW because of Securom+CCD|BlindWrite...
Or to be able to give RAW or subchannel data to a SW(again, CCD|BlindWrite), out of the firmware (except of course the TOC, which is mandatory)...

Concerning Yamaha, it's not a huge gap filled : finalizing means for a writer to burn few bits of data (as sectors) in the spiral. To go after is not a physical problem, just a modification of firmare. Anyway, data burned will be still conform to ybook, with continous increase of address of sector, so if you ask a reader to read one of those sector, it will read it, in the lead out, after if there is something (valid sector), so it does not anwser ZamZiBam challenge
