System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.19043-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 496.13

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.3.0 Alpha, branch: master, commit date: 2022-07-24 19:33, hash: 6db059e3d7
Worked: (unknown)

Short description of error

The "Vertex Opacity" slider in the 3D Viewport overlay settings affects both vertices (points) and edit lines if Curve Editing is off, but affects neither if it's on. Is this inconsistency intentional? Also, given that the slider's name only mentions vertices, is it supposed to affect edit lines at all?
Changes to the "Handles" overlay setting are not immediately reflected. For example, if you change it to "All", nothing happens at first; only when you select a stroke do the handles suddenly appear.

Another thing I noticed that I'm not sure is intentional: the "Stroke Direction" overlay doesn't show up when using the "Strokes" selection mode or Curve Editing.

This is a know limitation.

I have fixed the handle change not updated problem.

About opacity of curve points, the actual points of the grease pencil curve are done using the same drawing functions that are used for Mesh curves, and this does not support opacity adjust. We could hide the opacity parameter in overlay panel as is done in meshes.

@mendio what do you think to hide the parameter when curve edit is enabled?

Agree, until the opacity feature is not implemented for curves it is better to hide it for Grease Pencil also. Maybe you can open a new task for this @antoniov
