How about passing the original (ie. user-entered) ReST data to your display 
widget which then strips the 'raw::' string from the rest data before 
calling convertToHTML?

Alternatively, pass an additional arguement to convToHTML which is a flag 
that tells the routine whether or not to strip the raw command from the 
passed text string before processing it.

Seems simple, but i don't use ReST so maybe i am missing something...
