That is not correct. A "raw/native" FLAC file has no additional framing 
information. Simply removing the Ogg page headers from an Ogg/FLAC 
file would certainly produce a decodeable FLAC file. I'm not sure 
about Speex, but at least for Vorbis, it would certainly be possible 
to decode such a file. Seeking would be a little bit difficult, but 
still very much possible.
