I have also voted for that, yes.
I just want any seal research plan to get enough votes to beat Training Hazou: None.
You do realize that you can get salt just by boiling water? Just research the Heating Seal.
Heating gets us two thing: Fireless heat source for our hot air balloon, and a way to boil water for salts. Only problem is that we aren't near the ocean. So it's not as useful one would like.
Cooling seals give us an immediate commercial application in the form of ICE(tm).
Cooling seals also give us refrigerators, as far as civilian-tech goes.
Well, that depends on how long they last and whether civilians can use them.
Could this be done with a variant of Kagome's Implosion seal? It stores and then releases all the air within a radius, so perhaps instead of air it could do iron, gold, or any other substance you want to extract from the ground? (though that might be lethal - the human body has a lot of iron in it) Probably would need to test it at a distance and have a mouse in a cage or something to see if that'd happen.

We need to learn Old Henge so we can grow extra arms and make with the Iron Nerving of like forty seals from arms springing forth from our fronts, backs, sides, and forehead.
Noburi's Adventures in Science
NOBURI: "HELP!"
HAZOU: (Enters.) "Whoa awesome! You've got a tentacle growing out of your face now!"
NOBURI: "I know! Getitoffgetitoffgetitoff!"
HAZOU: "But it's so cool! ... wait. You mean you didn't do that deliberately?"
NOBURI: "WHY would I do this DELIBERATELY?!"
HAZOU: (Looks down at the stacks of paper containing his research notes for the Tentacle-Face Seal. Looks back up at Noburi. Looks down at his notes. Looks up at Noburi.)
HAZOU, CONT': (Quietly: ) "I am so jealous."
NOBURI: (Groans. Tries to facepalm, but the tentacle gets in the way. Flinches away from it's touch, and wipes the slime off of his hand frantically on his shirt, which then starts dissolving with a sizzling noise.)
HAZOU: "And it's corrosive! This is the greatest thing I've ever seen and I will have no part in getting rid of it!"
HAZOU, CONT': (Turns and walks away. Exits.)
NOBURI: "Hazou! No! Come ba-DAMMIT. HAZOU!"
HAZOU: (Calling from the distance: ) "This is for your own good! You'll thank me later!"
NOBURI: "Argh! Now what am I gonna do?"
NOBURI, CONT': (Squints at medical equipment.) "Maaaybe if I-"
(Cut to three hours later. Noburi now has four tentacles and an insect wing.)
NOBURI: "No. No, no, no. That did not help at all. What that did was the opposite of helping."
HAZOU: (Enters. In a breathless voice: ) "Shiiiny..."
NOBURI: "Oh fuck off."
