For all weighted fits the expected input are x, y, and weight. Typically the
weight is 1/yError^2.

When using a weighted-fit-plugin directly it should be apparent to the user
that a weight (as opposed to error) is required.

However, this is not the case when fitting by right-clicking on a curve (with
y-errors already specified) and selecting a weighted fit. In that case the
weights field is automatically set to the yError values and also disabled.
