I think it would be great to have a via calculator. This is especially important for high-current and high-power applications. Just like we need to know what trace width to use to carry different currents, we need to know what via diameter and/or how many vias we need to use. Here are some sample calculators:
1. http://www.blackstick.co.uk/pcb-design-calculators/via-current-mm.php
2. http://circuitcalculator.com/wordpress/2006/03/12/pcb-via-calculator/ |

Update: this tool has a ton of features worth duplicating as well. Please take a look at what it offers, and let's get all of the most useful features it offers into the KiCad calculator as well. I don't want to have to turn to other tools, I want KiCad to be so complete it's all I need.
