Ability to extend and rotate gradient interactively to get it perfect before you release the mouse button to commit. It's annoying to have to keep redoing the gradient until it looks right, so we really need it interactive.

No matter where I place a gradient, the effect extends to the top or bottom of the image, and is not confined to the bounds I setup.

I think this is a good idea guys and I'd like to see it too. I guess that with the recent, and continuing, move to a more GPU based interface this might now be possible. How about something similar to Illustrator's gradient widget?

I agree interactive edit handles for the gradient tool is what we need. That would be far better than what I mentioned above.

We need onscreen handles to set up a gradient. The was it`s now working in PS is just trial and error.
