Depends on how you set it up. If you use the form as an administrative tool then it works really well. Make the user input the password and pass it to the CGI for processing. Also the command doens't need to be quiet you can use the regular add and delete and it will send notification to the person who is either added or deleted. But as a admin interface it wroks really well for those owners who can't remember te syntax to modify their lists.
