Yeah, I understand that I can, but that wasn't what I was saying. For me I was just requesting the ability to adjust a stops alpha with a modifier via the color gesturing.
That is a good idea in itself, but we just don't have any more modifiers left (I plan to use Alt for "no change" drag). And in any case it would be more logical to adjust opacity by dragging the opacity control, not color swatch. Though, unfortunately, it looks like this trick won't work with a spinbutton anyway.
Does GTK have a widget such as those commonly used for volume control: a button that one can click and a slider appears that one can slide up or down to adjust the volume. The same concept with a text field beside it (i.e. replace the arrows of the spin button by the slider) would probably be just right for the opacity control... and probably for many more in the toolbars by the way.
