No I believe that the sea is salty as there should be a definate difference between the rivers and sea. Also it allows for more play oppurtunities, Imagine your players out at sea when some madman on board destroys all the fresh water, then just when despair is at it's lowest an Island appears on the horizon, if you ever want the players to go exploring, lack of water has got to be an incentive.

If salt is poisonous, then why do the Lunars in Pavis, and Sun Domers mine it? Salt is poisonous to plants yes, in large amounts. Also historically it has a great mythical aspect. The Romans after destroying Carthage sowed it's lands with salt so nothing would grow. To the average Gloranthan salt is used in cooking/preserving food (Salt Fish).
