Is a raft pretty much only used properly with a dual extruder system when it's printed in a dissolve-able material?

Not necessarily, but from what I've read the raft is often tough to remove from the bottom of the print. I've never tried to use one. There's an active thread in the Tips, Tricks and Tech Help area discussing starting with a raft and then having the bottom of the print raised up on one or more very narrow posts. The intent there is to force easier-to-remove support structure between the raft and the print. Sounds like a lot of work, a lot of wasted filament, and a lot of lost printer time but YMMV.
