Spatial Data Server - can you edit Sql Server data?

I've been reading through the documentation on SDS and am a bit confused. In the online help (http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/index.html#/Editing_and_ArcGIS_Spatial_Data_Server/01sq0000000t000000/) it says
"Currently, data using the SQL Server geography type in a database can only be queried"
which contradicts the more general statement on the same page of
"You can edit simple, two-dimensional vector data and its attributes in any database management system supported by ArcGIS Spatial
Data Server, provided the table you want to edit contains an identifier field that the database populates with unique integer values."

So does the limitation on editing data from SQL Server only apply to the Geography type? What if the data are using the Geometry type?

Thanks, Terry

Editing & sds:
You cannot edit the following through a feature service published to a spatial data server:
�?�Data that is in a geodatabase
�?�Data that is enabled for three-dimensions or measures
�?�Raster data
�?�Geography data in SQL Server
�?�Data in tables that do not have a qualifiying identifier field

If you store in geometry data you can edit through a feature service
