Never had the nerve to try it, but this should give you some savory salty umami flavor..

I actually ordered a small bottle of worcestershire in my last tpa order. Got it in today and it smells *exactly* like the sauce! I, too, have been wishing for something salty, and while I haven't mixed any of this up yet, I wonder why there isn't some additive sold that would give a salty flavor. Ever make a batch of chocolate chip cookies that tasted kind... flat? Chances are you left out the salt. I agree something like that would take things to the next level. While I doubt the worcestershire is the answer, it certainly *smells* salty lol. OK, I just tasted some, and... it's weird. It seems salty, yet not salty at the same time. That is, I can't tell if my brain is telling me it's salty because I associate the flavor with salt, or if I'm actually tasting salt. Tasted some more (the things I do... this stuff is fairly gross straight) and I'm fairly certain it's not salty.
i have detected salty notes in many vapes. its usually either peanut or butter. both give the salty sensation. buttered popcorn vapes come to mind, many waffle vapes have butter. butter rum has butter. many 555s use peanut as one of the nuts in their nut blend. then youve got the peanut butter vapes (candy bar, cookie, etc) but those tend to be more sweet than salty, but hey. and then if you really want to go nuts with salt go try out the baby back ribs vape and come back here to tell us how it was! 
It's this darn heat/drought. I've been sucking down lemon and lime e-juice concoctions for weeks now!
same here. my bottle of citrus punch is taking a beating!

Where did you get said juice?
A neat article re saltiness w/o salt:

Fascinating article --thanks. (Yes, I am a geek.)
It's also a perfect example of the kind of flavor industry research that I mentioned above.

I think the best way of encountering this missing taste receptor experience is going to be with ejuice derived from organic ingredients. Maybe tobacco leaf steeped in ejuice could get the umami in there? I guess it would depend how and where the crop has been grown. The good earth that keeps on giving.
i hear that the flavor research gets nuts. rumor has it that mcdonalds engineers all their tastes in a lab to create maximum overload by your brain. of course these are all strickly scientific terms i am using

Stuart Mackenzie: Well, it's a well known fact, Sonny Jim, that there's a secret society of the five wealthiest people in the world, known as The Pentavirate, who run everything in the world, including the newspapers, and meet tri-annually at a secret country mansion in Colorado, known as The Meadows.
Tony Giardino: So who's in this Pentavirate?
Stuart Mackenzie: The Queen, The Vatican, The Gettys, The Rothschilds, *and* Colonel Sanders before he went [forum censored t-breast word] up. Oh, I hated the Colonel with is wee *beady* eyes, and that smug look on his face. "Oh, you're gonna buy my chicken! Ohhhhh!"
Charlie Mackenzie: Dad, how can you hate "The Colonel"?
Stuart Mackenzie: Because he puts an addictive chemical in his chicken that makes ya crave it fortnightly, smartass!
The worcestershire sauce is definitely umami, but not salty. I think it just confuses your brain!
First thing that came to mind in this article is how hard it would be to vaporizer sodium chloride.
MELTING point is at 801° C (1,474° F)
Now... I'm not necessarily sure if the NaCl would be literally vaporized, or if the PG/VG would act as a carrier molecule...

NaCl would enter the atty suspended in the liquid, then when the liquid was driven off it would crystallize on the atty. So, if you did vape some salt, you wouldn't do it for long before you ruined the atty.
Unless the NaCl becomes a solute within the PG/VG solution. Vaporization is not equal to distillation, and therefore I am unsure of exactly what would happen.
PG/VG molecules when vaporized are actually still quite large, and would be able to hold a lot of particles.
Why don't menthol crystals stick on to attys? Menthol solution is simply a stereoisomer of natural menthol mixed with water.
Menthol is, however, an organic molecule... so there might be a difference when vaping an ionic compound, such as NaCl.
Salt deposits on the atty would be, at best, a guess.
Edit: Maybe I'm completely wrong and completely over thinking it but... this is just my two cents after a few years of experience in organic chemistry.

This topic caught my attention because, although I classified the taste as more bitter than salty, it describes the flavor note that finally ended smoking for me.
Water razzle from FSUSA. It's actually kind of bland and unremarkable as flavors go. As the name implies, it's supposed to be a watermelon and raspberry mix. When I use a eGo Type B mega atty/cart (preferred for this juice), it tastes more like unsweet iced tea. In a tank the fruit flavors are more noticeable. So maybe the cart stuffing mutes it just right. I dunno. It's best after about a week. When fresh you can barely taste any fruit. A 120ml bottle lasts about 6 weeks so I can't comment on longevity with this one LOL.
Regardless, it gives me a flavor and sensation that is like a weak version of a Camel filter to me. Satisfying without the kick in the chest and lung butter that the real one adds. It's one of two juices I've ever used to really have that slightly bitter taste that is what makes this my main vape.
The other is Cool Lick also from FSUSA. I saw it while browsing and the good & plenty picture compelled me to try a small bottle. It was gone in a week. The main flavor is black licorice, not something that appeals to many. It has a mint in it too. Tastes just like the candy and has that bitter note to it, just not as prominent as the water razzle. It's too strong and minty for an all-day vape, but is a nice alternate when I burn out on the other.

Hmm, you might have a good point about the menthol. I'm sure some of the salt would leave in the vapor.
Re: a guess. A pretty good guess. Real good.
I'm just saying... does leaving a coin in some salt water leave salt deposits on the coin?
Might be a bad example, but as long as the solution isn't saturated with salt I am fairly sure that it would leave within the vapor.:3
