I personally don't have one all consuming idea that I'd choose to apply with and that has stopped me applying in the past.
I have many ideas, all of equal interest & potential, each compliments a different side to my personality/experience.
The idea of running these ideas past the YC team for their input would be amazing!
I could imagine that a team with a single-minded focus on one idea would have more difficulty changing aim if it were suggested they pivot.
I think the 'no-idea-yet' teams that get chosen will be steered well by the YC team. They'll have a much more objective view on their business and will follow head not heart.

I'm also glad they'll consider single founders :)
