The following information make me doubt about the possibility to
modify an existing workflow (but I did not read all the documentation
again) :

    Listen: the import steps that a profile registers are additive.
That means that whenever you select a new profile as the active
configuration, any new import steps are ADDed to the set of already
registered import steps.

That's got nothing to do with this. It's still the same "workflow tool" import step, it's just operating on a different context (your own workflows.xml in this case).

It's the same for all steps. You can modify (with an extension profile) an FTI in portal types via types.xml + types/typename.xml. If you specify a subset of properties, those are updated, but others are kept the same. Same with propertiestool.xml: you don't wipe the portal_properties tool by using your own propertiestool.xml, unless you're running a base profile (which most people aren't).

Creating a new workflow is probably the best thing to do.

Yes, but not for the reasons you mention. :)
