With 6000+ gradients that is easier said than done. The site has, presently, a set of "selections" (blues, topo, bath and so on) which myself and Etienne have discussed as forming the basis for such QGIS sets (outline - XML file of gradient paths used to generate the cpt-city pages and also to be downloadable, these could then be used to filter the GUI, or to make specialist sub-sets of zipfiles on the QGIS side). That we will have a look at after the zip download is tested and working. As to the GUI navigation of such a large number of gradients, that is a challenge. I personally use the site itself as a selector, then when I find the one I want, I copy-paste the path (which is listed under the preview on each individual gradient's page, for exactly this purpose) into my script. eg on http://soliton.vm.bytemark.co.uk/pub/cpt-city/bhw/bhw4/tn/bhw4_003.png.index.html the path is cpt-city/bhw/bhw4/bhw4_003 I've not had time to look at the QGIS selecter, if it does not have a "gradient path" input (ie, no extension, no base directory) then perhaps it would be an idea to add one.
