Others may find themselves in situations that differ from yours. I use adduser on my boxes, but I administer servers that sit behind firewalls that *only* allow traffic through port 80. I have no control over the firewall or the decision making process. I use webmin (actually I use webmin ssh module to get a prompt rather than the webmin user module, but that's not my point).
