In general, though, I think this sort of thing occurs most often with the full consent of the author. I've heard about some authors who've written works I consider SFF, that they refused to allow their publisher to identify the works in question as SFF. That sort of thing does take me aback when I hear it, but as it's entirely hearsay, I don't feel comfortable naming names.
