Summary	0012452: Disable gradient stop adding for imported gradients and/or make the gradient handling more intuitive
Description	As of the current state of the application of gradients to items, the UI is a bit misleading. It's possible to import GIMP gradients, but they cannot be edited until they have been selected and after re-selecting "Custom" as the preferred gradient modification.
Steps To Reproduce	1) Create new doc. 2) Import a GIMP gradient. 3) Create a shape. 4) In The "Colours" tab of the PP (should be "Colours and Fills" by now) select Fill Mode > Gradient > Custom and then the imported gradient. --> The arrow+ icon for adding gradient stops is still active, but it's impossible to add any stop. Instead, one has to go back to the default "Custom" entry to add/subtract or edit the stops. I'd hesitate to call this intuitive...
