From what i understand if you are shooting in RAW, and i mean proper raw, white balances mean squat.

As troy pointed out you balance your black point, and your white point on the computer once everything has been shot. If it was a big point in anything programs such as maxim would make account for such a setting, but as they do not i do not think you need to worry about it.

The only thing i could say is to shoot the image in proper raw either cannon or something similar, then use a program to de bayer, stack and then process the image to obtain the correct white balance.

If you are obsessed enough to set it in the camera, then i would go for normal sunlight WB, this will reveal the colours as we would generally see it. but there are lots of variables that change this.

Good luck
