Not really true. Sandstorm acts as a proxy in front of the apps and adds headers which identify the user. It takes very little code on the app side to read these headers and use them rather than use the app's own authentication.
That said, we do have some changes which we'll have to rebase from time to time. Eventually we hope that app developers will be interested in maintaining these changes themselves and explicitly targeting Sandstorm, but that is probably a ways away still. In the meantime, maintaining the edits doesn't seem to painful.
