The most popular application for crontab would be, well, cron. vixie-cron and metacron are fairly popular in linux, I suspect you have one or the other already. Having an actual cron-style cron is rather standard and downright expected -- I'd be leery of replacing it with some fancy web-thing.

There's definitely web interfaces for cron anyway. webmin can control cron for instance.
