(Get the code!)
A workaround to flow a text element manually.
1. Create a rectangle.
2. Select the rectangle and the text, and use the Text>Flow into Frame command.
3. Open the XML editor (Edit>XML Editor).
4. Select the flow text on the canvas so that it becomes highlighted in the XML editor.
5. In the XML editor, open the <svg:flowRegion> element, select its <svg:use> element, and remember the xlink:href value.
6. Move (drag and drop in the editor) the <svg:rect> element with the id matching the one in the xlink:href to the <svg:flowRegion> element.
7. Remove the <svg:use> element from the <svg:flowRegion> element.
