Just to be clear, I think aviewanew is concerned that he wouldn't be able
to log in with his current password, which would not be the case.
Changing the salt here would just invalidate your current login session.
Presumably if you're editing your wp-config.php file or moving servers, it
won't be too much trouble to clear your cache.
