Never. Ever. Ever.
The problem with webmin is that while it appears easy, it does have a penchant for mangling a box because that distro does thing slightly different than webmin was written to do. Additionally, it's just one more thing to keep track of to update. How sheepish would you feel if your box was compromised because someone exploited your version of webmin?
Bad idea. Don't do it.
