Sure EPS and PS can host a raster image, but they should only do so if 
you put a raster image into the document and even then only that image 
should be raster.  Everything else should be vector as usual.  If I 
wanted a raster image I'd choose one of those formats, not EPS. 
MSWindows produces raster EPS and PS files and it is absolutely useless 
- you get ugly documents which take up many MB per page. Presumably if a 
user selected 'EPS' it's because they wanted a vector format - I don't 
see that there should be a choice between vector EPS and bitmap-stuffed EPS.
