You know, I don't really get why people aren't uplifted about that advice. To me that says, if you know your genre well enough to push its boundaries from the inside, and you do it well, you can do pretty much anything you want. And that's awesome to hear. I think.
But then I'm in a really optimistic mood right now. ;)
Hah. Well, you're right! I think mostly people get annoyed at the idea that it's work. The implication is that editors should approach the writers and beg for the privilege of publishing their masterful works of fiction. And that's just not how it works. (Except for with, like, katallison, who I would happily beg.)
