I don't really have the final answer to this, but I do know what 
action=raw does internally: read an article's wikitext from the database 
and output it without any processing. In that sense, one could say 
action=raw isn't supposed to support variants, as it dumps the *raw* 
wikitext content of an article. On the other hand, the alternatives kind 
of suck, so I guess action=raw should support variants anyway. Has this 
bug been filed at Bugzilla yet? If not, please do so.
