Reset from image option should have a confirm prompt for security since it is a destructive action.

Clicking on the "Reset From Image" link doesn't immediately reset though - it shows a form for selecting the image to reset with.

I am aware of that. However comparing to solusvm, solus has an extra confirm box to verify since its destructive to prevent user error.

I just see it as something better to have than not.

Perhaps a warning on the reset page would be better? In general Cloudmin and Virtualmin don't have extra confirmation forms if there is a form already to perform some action. Confirmation is usually added only for actions triggered by a link in the UI, like "Delete System".

You can do that, I just see a potential area where someone could make an error that would not be good.

I will make the warning on the reset form more prominent.
