This is the same bug as here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=174356
At the moment each paintop can only have one settings widget and once that
get deleted you don't get it back. I had the same problem when I implemented
the saving of presets (I wonder if this might be doing the same).

The way to solve this is to allow the the paintop factory to create settings
widgets and decouple the paintop settings from the widget. So instead of
having a pointer to the widget in the settings object you would write the
settings into it. I tried to do that, but I haven't finished that yet. At
the moment I'm a bit stuck with KisPaintOpOption data that needs to be saved
and read from the settings object.
