Right; mainly because it's user settings, allowing any program to add connections isn't necessarily secure. However, any program can write GConf so it's mostly a misnomer. In the future we do want to allow this, subject to various security considerations or at least notifications. For now, only system settings allows connection addition because it actually validates caller's via PolicyKit.
