Would using firewall style access control be an option? You would configure iptables (or whatever access filter the slave computer supported) to deny access from users to the MySQL port of the slave machine.

You would just be missing the mysql.* tables and those are only used for permission related stuff. Permissions are exactly what you want to be different between slaves and master.
Is there another way?
Not that I know of. I just looked at the startup options but couldn't find anything for this purpose.

Because sometimes they get confused and use the slave as the master...

Give their account different GRANTs on the master than on the slave(s) and make sure that GRANTs (the `mysql` database) are not replicated from the master to the slaves.
