That means you know what each lens does for near/far as well as its coverage. For most of us that means that we use/have used one focal length so much its like breathing. I use a 21 SA all the time on an M3 without a finder if I know I'll be shooting in crowded conditions. Just stick the lens where I want it and shoot away. Regarding previous discussions about getting on your knees it means that sometimes you don't have to, just get the camera down where you want it. However, this technique isn't for archetectural work as horizons aren't always going to be straight.
