> what is the preferred behavior with the dropper
> when a non-solid (gradient) swatch is selected ?

Initially I thought this could be addressed by limiting this new feature to the scope of the 'one-time' dropper tool (i.e. when called from the button in the color selector widget in the Fill&Stroke dialog): thus it would either modify the color of the solid swatch, or the stop color of the selected gradient stop (be it a regular gradient or a gradient swatch). The normal mode of the dropper tool would still replace the swatch with a regular flat color (like it does with objects which use a gradient paint server).

Unfortunately the content of the Fill&Stroke panel for gradient swatches is soemwhat inconsistent in this regard (it displays the color selector even though only the first stop of the gradient swatch is actually modifiable), and thus currently doesn't allow above solution.
