I should have added "without first converting the track to PCM format."  See http://www.realhd-audio.com/?p=1235

...However, if you want to make any edits using crossfades or do real time level changes or audio layering in system, they have to increase the bit count for each word…making the DSD into PCM once again. This is the “special signal processing” that is referred to in the paragraph. This detail is conveniently omitted from the side bar...

 

The whole point of DSD is that it is an archiving format for original recordings in the studio or most notably, the concert hall.  It's specifically not meant to be editable.
