After just a few minutes looking through, it looks like the salted user gets
added in merb/merb-auth/setup.rb in the generated app. You can just comment
out lines 17 and 18 to remove the functionality (it's not actually in the
slice or merb-auth at all).
All you need to do is implement an authenticate method on your user_class
(which is defined via Merb::Authentication.user_class = Whatever, defaults
to User in setup.rb) and the slice will do all the work for you.

How's that for some granular opt-out :P
