I find it rather tedious to add a contact from within Google+ interface to a circle. I would rather add the contact from within the contacts section in Gmail. Is this possible?

Better yet, can it automatically add/create contacts to circles in Google+ from my groups that I've already associated my contacts to?

It is not currently possible. When adding a contact to a circle in Google+, that contact does show up in Gmail contacts and in Google Contacts. What gets added to the contacts database is a new contact with a a url entry titled "profile" and with a Google profile url, e.g. mine is https://www.google.com/profiles/106258285517412659099. Part of being a contact in Google+ is being in a circle. From Google or Gmail contacts, there is no way to designate a circle. There is also no way from the API to do this currently as well.
