That sounds like a nice idea for a module ..
Regarding the crashing, check if anything gets logged in /var/webmin/miniserv.error
when it happens. Also, try logging in as root and running the following
commands to re-start Webmin :
/etc/webmin/stop ; /etc/webmin/start
Then take whatever action causes it to crash, and see if any messages appear
in the shell window.
