Overly broad and vauge statement without examples of course. However, easily disproven. Someone who elevates Mary to goddess or makes her the fourth part of the Trinity is a heretic. So, by definition, not everything and anything is acceptable.

Do you agree that Richard of St. Laurence's statement is heretical?

I pointed out above that it is obvious Laurence's statement was *not* meant in any kind of absolute sense, though it is awfully misleading. Read the first paragraph of the article again.

But if you want to reframe the statement in an absolute sense--saying that Mary's name to the exclusion of all others--is the one by which we are saved, that is manifest heresy, yes.
