Correct, you need to just open the form of that existing property and then 
change the rdfs:domain there. I don't think it would be intuitive or a common 
use case to add existing properties by dragging edges. The role of the 
graphical class editor is really more to get started with a new model quickly.

It is not possible to edit a property by clicking on the link. But since the 
property is also found in the class box, you can double click on it there.

Hope this clarifies things.
