Not at all, the transparency of the selected stop is viewable and settable via the Opacity setting in the statusbar or in fill&stroke dialog.
If you agree to keep the dialog, I'm volunteering to implement my proposed enhancements. I am going to need some help before I can start doing this though, I'm completely unfamiliar with the inkscape codebase, so I will probably need some hand-holding initially. The benefit is that hopefully the community will have gained another contributor :-)
I'm all for new contributors, I just honestly don't understand what is the benefit of this compared to on-canvas editing.
