Is there any way to regenerate the Certificate Authority used to create the WebAdmin HTTPS certificate?

If you want to regenerate the signing CA you can do that in webadmin by going to:
site to site VPN >> Certificate Management >> Advanced
CJL, you are correct!
Because of Tom Kistner's comment, and the fact that I've never experienced any problems with the WebAdmin CA, I assumed that the CA was regenerated along with the Certificate. That apparently is not so. I just did an experiment with our test box, and it still has the same CA that was created when I set up the device in February. I also tried Dilandau's suggestion, and the webadmin CA remained unchanged. Even though I was pretty sure it wouldn't make any difference, I then tried changing the Proxy CA, and that had no effect.
OK, so if the only use of the WebAdmin CA is to sign the WebAdmin Cert, then what benefit do I get from changing the CA?
