Dragging and dropping a color onto the gradient editor's preview area adds a 
node at that position with that color.  It IS useful behavior when you are 
initially setting up a gradient, but not when you are tweaking the parameters 
later on.

On the other hand, dragging and dropping a color onto a gradient node handle 
paints both sides of that node that color.  Which is definitely quite useful 
behavior - it does avoid the issue of GIMP not treating node colors as 
contiguous by default (it should, really!) .
