This behaviour change was intentionally introduced in 1.0.55 on the 
upstream side:

       - cups-browsed: Do not create a local queue pointing to a
         remote raw queue (Ubuntu bug #1335211).

Till: this change introduces a regression for valid use cases. How 
should we fix this and/or how should Peter access his remote raw queue 
then?

Cheers,
OdyX
