Opacity of last selected gradient stop persists in 'Fill and stroke' and status bar after tool switch
Migrated from: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1455740
Steps to reproduce:
- open Inkscape
- Select the blob/star shape with the Gradient tool
- Open the Fill and Stroke dialog > Fill tab
- Select the middle stop (looks pink, but really is white with 50% opacity)
- Notice that everything is displayed properly in both F/S dialog and the Style Indicator area (specifically the opacity)
- Switch to the Selection tool, in any way you like
What happened?
Notice in both the F/S dialog and the Style Indicator area, that the opacity is still reported as 50%, and it's still displaying the middle stop info
What should have happened?
Should display 100% opacity, rather than opacity of previously selected gradient stop.

Per ~suv comments, a duplicate bug report (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1314208) is tracking the Style Indicator part of this, and this report is to track the Opacity Slider part, since she says they may require different fixes. (At least as far as I understand the comments.) (That report has not been migrated, and I hesitate to touch ~suv's works.)
Just pasting in the last details here, since I don't understand well enough to abbreviate:
