No because it's on the fill or stroke tab, and thus must apply to fill and stroke only. And outside of these tabs, we already have the Opacity slider. The only partially sensible idea would be to remove the A:, but I don't want to go that far because, no matter how rarely, it's necessary (for example to eliminate or adjust fill/stroke opacity in those old or non-Inkscape files which already use it).

What if Alpha was mapped to Opacity only when a colour stop is selected? Users don't need to know the SVG parameter being controlled has changed provided they see what they expect to see.
