You want to add a new UID, as that is what contains an email address. A subkey is a different thing altogether. The reason the new UID is listed first is that, by default, GPG treats the most recent UID as the primary one. This is because the more recent email address generally is the more useful one. That said, you can change it via the "primary" command in the "gpg --edit-key" menu. I don't know if kgpg makes this command available via the GUI or not. Note, though, that the notion of primary UID is almost completely cosmetic. It doesn't really matter much in practice UID is listed first.
