How about we add some salt to the list of mineable minerals? Salt isn't useless, and people can use it to boost their hunger when eating their steaks and porkchops. Salt can be found right above bedrock, and can be mined by a Stone Pickaxe and above. There can also be some seeds for salt domes so people can get salt closer surface than mining to rock bottom.
First of all, salt is definitely not useless. This could be a majorly awesome addition to the game. I'll get to that in a moment. Secondly, it shouldn't spawn just above bedrock, that's silly. It should spawn at the bottoms of oceans, is what I feel.
Here's what salt can be used for:
-Most importantly, it's for preserving food. That means that, if rotting food is ever added, salt would be a must for preserving that food.
-It can be an ingredient in new foods (cooked eggs, for example).
-Salt is inflammable.
-Preventing plants from growing (Carthago delenda est, anyone?)

Ah... I didn't realize, but also think about a little bit underneath the ocean and under some cobblestone can be some salt. Salt domes will play a good role just incase people try to find salt a little underneath the ground. And I edited the useless part.
I think that having salt at the bottom of the ocean would be a great idea. It would give people a reason to go ocean-diving for one, plus it would have some interesting uses: Salting and preserving meat, preventing plants from growing in certain areas, and also melting ice and snow.
