Do rakes go in the bunker?

Everyone seems to have a different opinion on this so I thought I would do one of those voting things. The question is, after raking a trap, do you put the rake in the trap or up on the edge of it in the grass. If the rake is on the grass, it may block a rolling ball from entering the trap. If the rake is in the trap a ball might get perched up against it on the side of the bunker. If the trap is tall and the rake is in the trap, it might be tough to get to the rake without actually walking through the bunker. Which is the preferred spot for the sand trap rake?

Rakes - Leave them in the bunker sand or out of the bunker on the grass?

Leave it in the bunker
Leave it outside the bunker
