The Price Editor display shows the source as user-price not Finance::Quote; even though the new security is set up the same as the older securities that show Finance::Quote as the source.

Probably not. It's because since 2.6.8 GnuCash stores only one price per day and replaces that price according to a hierarchy, with user-price being the highest. Try retrieving prices tomorrow and if the new security is set up correctly you'll get a Finance::Quote price recorded.
