The 'un-selectability' of empty 'Flowed Text' objects might have a common cause with bug #349602 “Textbox is unselectable after text is overflowed by empty lines.”
They can be created accidentally in Inkscape with the text tool: draw a rectangle (maybe thinking you're still using the select tool), don't enter any text, click somewhere else on the canvas and the textbox disappears but leaves a unvisible svg:FlowRoot element behind (watch it happening with the XML editor open) - see question "Black blocks appear on the image when I open an SVG file with Firefox." <https:/
