Technically, there is no such thing as a RAW histogram as a RAW file is not really an image. The histogram shown is a representative of the color space of the specified profile (AdobeRGB, sRGB, etc) you choose. Change those preferences and you'll see the histogram in the RAW converter change a small amount. At least, that's my understanding.
As for bracketing, I have never really understood the necessity when a clearly defined and easily read histogram is so readily available. It seems to me a bad habit to habitually shoot brackets. There are some occasions, though, when both highlights and shadows are clipped, and bracketing may be helpful to find the best compromise exposure.
Lastly, exposing to the right is a good idea in general, but you'll want to be careful with subjects that have large areas of very subtle highlights as you run the risk of making them look too harsh. The cameras histogram is a great tool, but can be a bit inaccurate at the far reaches of the tone scale (white, black), especially if the the toes of the curves are very long. You will occasionally find that what looked to be a good ETTR histogram actually clips a small bit, even when shooting RAW. Just be aware of the tonality of your subject matter and pull the histogram back a bit to the left if necessary.
